Getting Started in Publishing

Pharmacist to FormWeb customer support: "Can you help me get something published?"

Our customer community includes some who have published books and journal articles and others who would like to publish but don't know where to begin.

We are happy to have created this way for people in the two groups to come together.

List of journals          Publishing Group Conference Calls

Group members will have access to 3 important areas of information:

  • Conference calls every 6 - 8 weeks led by an experienced author with time for questions and answers
  • Ongoing group mentoring, based on the outcome of the conference calls
  • Web page (that's where you are now) with links to a dozen pharmacy journals, writing tips, and other helpful information

Best of all, membership is free. We are always looking for new ways to encourage communication of important medication safety information. And it's another way we hope to increase the value of your subscription to FormWeb.
