About this event

You’ve been listening to Perspectives for years and you’ve had an idea or two you wanted to share, but maybe you're not sure of the next step. How do you take your unique perspective and turn it into a 90-second commentary to share with your fellow public radio listers?

Join us at the Rockford Public Library East Branch for a free, fun, low pressure workshop where we discuss taking your fresh ideas, shaping them, and getting them on the air.

We'll bring the coffee, you bring your ideas! We also suggest bringing a notebook to write in.

Workshop host Dan Libman was one of the original Perspectivists for WNIJ and is the author of the story collection Married But Looking. Dan has been an editor and a writing teacher and has won a Pushcart Prize and an Illinois Art Council grant in prose. Dan read his This I Believe essay, Discomfort, on the Bob Edward show in 2013.
