Tell the World ProjectBy Denise Lewis

For my “Tell the World” project

For my Tell the World project I wanted to write a letter to the editor of our local newspaper

I later decided to write an article about my life as an immigrant, The struggles to get to America My nursing journey from a LPN student to now a Bachelor’s degree student

at JMU

I live in a small town and the reason I chose to write this article is because I want people in my community to know about me and my role as a nurse/ student

Who did I present it to

I contacted the Culpeper Star Exponent to get information on how to proceed with submitting my article

The information I received was to send article to newspaper email address each reporter will get a copy of article and review the article

and then decide whether or not to publish it

How did it go

This was a difficult assignment for me because I couldn’t figure out what I wanted to tell the world about nursing

I decided I was going to tell the world (my community) about my personal life struggles and my role as a nurse and nursing student

I have submitted the article to the newspaper email address and I am anxiously waiting to see if it gets published
