Fillers

We try to make the best use of every page of the printed LJPC, so we use small gaps to publish fillers. Most fillers have the added advantage of entertaining readers and making them think.

We welcome articles of up to 600 words (we also like and need much shorter ones) on topics such as:

• A patient who changed my practice
• A memorable patient
• A paper that changed my practice
• The person who has most influenced me
• My most informative mistake
• Any other story conveying instruction, pathos, or humour
• Endpieces - quotations of no more than 80 words (often fewer) from any source

If the filler refers to an identifiable person we will need written consent to publication from that person or a relative.
