Review of The "Laggy" AwardsI laugh just about every time Sharon Glassman opens her mouth. She knows how to write a conversational radio essay and does an even better job performing it. She's not trying to be funny. She just is. Also, she's not on a soapbox. Sharon knows how to give a perspective that resonates well with public radio listeners. In this case, indie and freelance workers (especially those who don't yet know about prx.org) will identify with her dilemma -- chasing down payments. WFUV didn't produce this essay as we did others, but we will air it! |

Review of The "Laggy" Awards
Tongue in cheek, self-deprecating, and so very true. A little inspiration for the small business person who feels all alone in a big, bad world.
