Everyone has a story. A special patient, an embarrassing moment, how you handled a difficult situation. How do you relieve the emotional stress that can occur in our profession? Do you have a blog? Write poetry? Draw? Share it.

This is an opportunity to share your story. Most people enjoy human interest stories, especially things that they can closely relate to. Maybe you found an article, or a comic that is so appropriate to our field that you just have to share with the rest of us - send it in! (make sure that you’re not infringing on any copyright issues if the story/article/comic isn’t yours - you can always ask for permission to use it on our web site).

Start contributing! Let’s make the WSRC web site full of interesting things to keep visitors coming back for more. If you’re not sure about what to submit, email me.
