Join us for an amazing opportunity to learn why to write for the public—and how to do it. Led by the team that brings you Made by History, this presentation and conversation will dig into everything from the benefits of writing for the public to the process of op-ed writing, the nuts and bolts of constructing different types of op-eds, pitching editors and publicizing your work both within and outside of the academy. It will address the differences stylistically between academic and public writing and how to adapt to the new form, the benefits and downsides to social media, citations, and other elements of public scholarship as well.
Brought to you by the Goldberg Center, History Department, Mershon Center, and Origins: Current Events in Historical Perspective.
