Hi Tricia,

I am so glad that you are excited about this opportunity. I really hope that we get a lot of submissions from our group. I tried to find out where you could purchase the book from but I didn't have any luck, I am going to ask one of the nurses from the Virginia Cancer Institute because she is the one who gave me the book and she said that she could order more. As soon as I find out I will post it.

You said that you were thinking of possibly writing a poem to submit, you can submit one along with your art piece. They like for you to write about your work of art and what it symbolizes or about your journey with cancer. They will print it next to your work of art in the book. You could also do your sculpture that you were thinking of and take a photo of it and submit the photo or have the photo scanned onto a canvas, the possibilities are endless, just have fun with it.

Big Hugs,
Nicola
