This month's topic, for anyone interested in contributing a haiku to the free collaborative zine, is the much-easier-than-last-month's FRIENDS AND FAMILY. I'm looking for very short creative contributions from anyone with lived experience of a heart condition who would be wiling to share their opinions and experiences of how friends and/or family impact upon their experience of living with a heart condition...or vice versa.
I'm posting this here because a number of forum members have contributed previously or expressed an interest in the zine.
As well as offering a creative outlet for people living with a heart condition, my hope for the zine is that it will raise public awareness of the real-life experiences, opinions and priorities of actual heart patients. If you have any thoughts about how friends and/or family relate to your experience of living with a heart condition, I (and the zine's readers) would love to hear them. No writing experience is necessary and all contributions are gratefully received.

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with, whether you're a regular contributor or a total haiku newbie
