"Chicken Soup for the Nurse's Soul"


© Pat Mahan

This isn't my intended monthly article, but I was so excited by the news, I wanted to get this up and share it you just as quickly as possible. I know many of you are familiar with the "Chicken Soup for the Soul" series. These critically acclaimed books each feature 101 stories to inspire and uplift the soul. Now, one is being written in honor and dedication to nurses. LeAnn Theiman, RN is the co-author of this new book. She contacted me to see if we could help get some stories for the book. Here's the press release she sent:
Chicken Soup for the Nurse's Soul is looking for stories that will touch the hearts and rekindle the spirits of all nursing personnel. Send inspirational true stories, articles, or anecdotes (1200 words or less) to LeAnn Thieman at ChickenSoup@LeAnnThieman.com . Email submissions preferred. Faxes accepted at 970-377-3772 or Mail: 6600 Thompson Drive, Fort Collins, CO 80526. See my website at www.LeAnnThieman.com for details and sample stories. Deadline Sept. 2000. Payment is $300 per story and your bio in the back of the book.
As you may know from some of my other articles here and elsewhere on the net, I feel a deep sense for this type of inspiration and motivation in our profession. Lay persons and nurses are encouraged to submit their stories about nurses. Please visit LeAnn's site for more details and example stories. This is one book that belongs in the hands of every nurse and everyone nursing.

Look for a more traditional article from me in the next week or so. And I'd very much like to hear your ideas for stories. Summer is just around the corner and it's a time when most of us take a vacation. Please have a safe, restful and invigorating time.
