In this forum, you will focus on the idea of nurses as writers, and your initial post will be based on two of this week’s readings. First, review the list of readings in the Week 9 lesson. Select two readings that you personally connect with, that you find interesting, or that otherwise stand out to you for a particular reason. Next, after you have read the two selected readings, write an initial post that answers the following questions: Tell your classmates which readings you selected, and why. Try to be a specific as possible. How can you use the readings to inspire your Creative Reflection? Readings (Select 2) Mulvhil, L. (2013, July 9).
