Call for Submissions: Submit Story Entries For Medical Student Anthology! Deadline: March 20, 2017

Are you a medical student with different backgrounds and unique insights into internal journeys through medicine? Consider submitting a story, reflection, essay or poem. Medical students and recent graduates are invited to submit entries (a story, reflection, essay or poem) for a Medical Anthology Book!

You may submit essays, reflections, poems and other written forms of expression. Submissions on any topic are welcome but should focus on your internal journey through medicine. You may draw on your unique background and how that has influenced your journey. For example, you can write about how you’ve handled parenting and schooling, or how you’ve built a support system despite the isolation of medical school or how your relationships with loved ones have blossomed or suffered or about feelings that you are living someone else’s dream. You can also write about your triumphs, frustrations, struggles and hopes on your process.

​Prompt: How has medical school proved different from what you expected? Are there things about yourself you’ve discovered because of medical school?

You are welcome to write in whatever style you want.​
