It’s NURSES APPRECIATION WEEK! Thank you to the brilliant RNs in our anthology, like Katherine Flores Guzman, who wrote the stunning essay, "It's Not That." Guzman is a nurse practitioner & writer with special interests in underserved communities & public health research. She believes in the power of language to foster empathy, create healing spaces, and honor the communities that shape us. Her writing has appeared in Calendula Review, Auxocardia & Yellow Arrow Journal. Thank you to RNs everywhere who take care of us.

Who Needs to Know When You Get Admitted to the Hospital?
Inspired by the Boomer Hospital Reveal, Reader's Digest asked experts if there are any hard-and-fast rules when it comes to sharing your medical news. Two of the contributors to Where It Hurts are quoted in this informative feature by journalist Tara Cox. @ThisIsTaraCox

We are the suns ☀️ — not waiting for light, but creating it.

A reflection on art, healing, and the narratives we need right now.
