What’s the one thing you enjoy talking about more than anything else? Some call it a passion, a hobby, a career, a cause, or special interest. Whatever inspires you, this session will help you share it with others.
Shared passion creates community, untethered by geographic boundaries. In this session, full-time podcast producer Ray Ortega and blogger Mary Fletcher Jones will show you how to translate your enthusiasm into a blog or podcast! Blogs and podcasts both have feeds, but they have different attributes. We’ll explore which medium (or both) is right for you and your topic, and talk about how to get started building a community based on common interests.
GOOD TO KNOW:
This session will be video recorded. By attending in person, you understand and consent that your image and/or conversations may be recorded and broadcast, e.g., on Livestream or YouTube. Please do not use flash photography as it will interfere with the video recording.
Feel free to bring a lunch to the session.
The room will be open at 11 a.m. for anyone who would like to save a seat or help set up. Please do not save seats for others, as we are at capacity for the room.

The library will be open and parking will be limited. Additional free parking is available in adjacent Loehmann’s Shopping Center about 2 blocks away. Metrobus transportation is available from Dunn Loring Metro Station.
