I am working on a revised chapter for the 5th edition of the Informatics and Nursing textbook to replace chapter 6 in the 4th edition.  The focus of the new chapter is scholarly writing. The backdrop of the chapter is using the word process to format the paper with APA 6th citation style.

I revisited a wonderful quarterly newsletter, Nurse Author & Editor, at http://www.nurseauthoreditor.com/default.asp

If you are writing a paper for a class or as a requirement for a nursing degree, you will find the newsletter to be a "pot of gold!"  The September 2013 issue is just one example.

The newsletter is free.  All you need to do is to create a login and password.  I have it on my list of MUST reads. 

Nurse writing for undergraduate nursing classes, a Master's thesis, PhD dissertation, DNP scholarly project or for publication should review the Nurse Author & Editor newsletter.
