Ronning Branch

MEETING ROOM A & B

This hybrid writing workshop features award winning author Jim Reese who provides workshop prompts to get you started writing. This program is provided by the South Dakota Humanities Council.

This workshop is a hybrid writing program featuring an informal conversation with Reese, an award winning writer. Workshop prompts will get you started writing and delve into what matters most to you.

Reese will cover his work writing poetry with inmates and how that transitioned into writing a true crime memoir, Coming to a Neighborhood Near You. This 2025 title has been praised by J. Ryan Stradal, New York Times best-selling author of Kitchens of the Great Midwest as "Part true crime story, part memoir, part compassionate plea for criminal justice reform, Jim Reese's latest book is as astonishing as it is essential - the result is an eye-opening, informative, and empathetic argument for change." 

Registration is required. If you have questions, please call 605-367-8700.
