• W3081569412 abstract "Contrary to the myths, publishing is for real people. You do not have to be a famous person to publish, in fact most people publish first and then receive recognition. If myths about who publishes are the cause of your writer's block, it's time to debunk the myths and submit your article. Here are three myths about published authors which you can prove wrong by following the tips described with each myth. For years, I thought that authors were an elite chosen few who were bom with special gifts, much like musicians with perfect pitch or saints who experienced visions. However, as Mirin points out, “Effective writing is a craft to be mastered, not a gift endowed upon a chosen few.” They struggled for their perfection. Saints, great musicians, and authors all reached their goals through practice, patience, and perseverance. They also sought the skill and counsel of others and learned through step-by-step processes. Use the skills of editors. It is easy to feel intimidated by a well-written article that appears in your favorite journal. Chances are, however, that the article did not roll off from the author's pen exactly the way that it appears on the page. Referees, editors, and copy editors all lent some expertise to the finished product. I am frequently reluctant to submit a manuscript, because I find fault with my own writing. I am less likely to get bogged down by this when I tell myself that editors get paid to find my mistakes. Look for successful authors and editors who are willing to mentor new authors. An invaluable mentor for my first article was my editor. She offered constructive criticism, helped me to refine my ideas, and encouraged me to focus on my good ideas rather than every little word. Nurses are afraid that unsolicited manuscripts will suffer rejection. This is a myth. While many published articles are indeed solicited, many are not. The only difference between a solicited article and an unsolicited one is the person who generated the idea: the editor in for a solicited one or the author for the unsolicited manuscript. Create a timely article now that an editor probably would have requested later, anyway, or find an editor who will tell you what they are looking for (See “Interviews with Editor's” in this issue.) If you are afraid of rejection, submit your article to a journal which publishes a relatively large percentage of unsolicited articles. Swanson et al. who completed a survey of nursing journals report that many nursing journals accept unsolicited manuscripts (Swanson). The trick for solicited articles is to be the solicited author, so introduce yourself to nursing editors. Learn who edits a journal that publishes articles similar to your style and philosophy of nursing. I introduced myself to an editor at a convention, told her of my interests and expertise, and gave her my business card. Several months later, she solicited an article from me which was later published. I called Suzanne Hall Johnson to tell her how much I enjoyed Nurse Author & Editor and during the conversation, she solicited this article. If you have nursing expertise, but have trouble identifying timely topics and unique slants, contact the editors. Editors solicit timely articles with unique slants. Identify what specific slants you could take on timely topics (Johnson). Also avoid topics which have already been covered extensively in the literature. In addition, consider writing for new journals which are frequently looking for manuscripts, so the chances are greater that your unsolicited article will be accepted. My father once remarked about a man whom many stood in awe of: “He's no different than I. He puts his pants on one leg at a time.” Nurse authors are no different than you. If you converse with “important” published people, you will soon learn that they write their articles one word at a time, just like you do. I once rode the shuttle bus from the hotel to the airport with Imogene King. We chatted informally and this very real person told me about her struggle to become who she is. She inspired me to write and invited me to call, if I needed help. Talking with important people helps you realize that they are real people, too. Once while talking with another nationally-known colleague, I learned that in addition to writing a book that is used throughout the country, she bakes cupcakes for her grandson. Published authors are no different from you, except they have taken that step and submitted their work. The manuscripts may flow from the veteran pen a little easier than from the neophyte one; but practice, patience, and perseverance are common to all successful authors. Notice who publishes; read the credit line that appears with the article. Frequently, the author is someone who has a position similar to yours. If you find yourself saying, “I could have written that article”, chances are you could have. Recognize you have something important to say. Listen to someone who thinks you are extraordinary. If you are listening to the self-effacing voice within you, you have already met the author's enemy — yourself. Instead, listen to the patients, colleagues, mentors, family, and friends who tell you how much you have to offer the nursing world. The first person who told me that I had an article worthy for publication was my college advisor. (But I did not submit the article then because I felt unworthy; I was only a student.) A friend of mine frequently listens to my inspirations and unique ideas for solving problems and comments, “Sounds like an article to me.” You can defeat the enemy when you have these allies giving you moral support and encouragement. Mastering the craft of writing takes practice, patience, and perseverance. Others can help you to refine your ideas and to produce a technically well-written article. You can help yourself by recognizing you have something important to say. If you master the craft, your unsolicited article will be worthy for publication. The “important” people who have published are simply real people who have practiced the skills, been patient with the revisions, and persevered until the article was accepted. Real people master the craft.— Marie Biancuzzo, RN,C, MS, Clinical Nurse Specialist, Strong Memorial Hospital, Rochester, NY, (716) 275-0662." @default.
