Accounts, Volume III

This volume contains essays written by the storyteller herself rather than by the editor, following an interview, as was done in the previous volumes.

Here are the guidelines:

  • Choose to write about one experience from your training or professional life be it positive, negative, inspirational, career altering, etc., or an orthopaedic cultural issue you feel passionate about.
  • Describe the topic in detail and how you feel/felt about it.
  • Note what you learned and how it may influence others.
  • Include no names of people, places, training programs or professional practices.
  • Write it in less than 1000 words

Please send your account or questions to the editor at zillmer.debra@gmail.com.
