How To Write for a Broad Public

This session will dig into the nuts and bolts of public scholarship and cover why and how to write for the public or participate in broadcast media: everything from why to look for public venues for your work, to how to write various types of op-eds, to how to pitch editors, and how to publicize your work both within and outside of the academy.

This session will address the differences stylistically between academic and public writing and how to adapt to the new form, as well as the differences among different types of broadcast media stylistically.
