Canned Air
The radio essay this past Friday, as usual, did bring a few new visitors to Fragments. And the best part is, those who hear the broadcast live are from our area--neighbors, practically.
The early essays starting in October, 2002, were the most effective way I had of finding new readers from near home. Then--and still--I have more readers in a typical day from London than I do from Floyd. Matter of fact, Jean from GB wrote to say she heard the radio broadcast via the web, and there is a nice world-shrinking feeling to that.
Several of you wrote to say you were sorry you missed it, or that you only caught the last part of it. I made a copy of the 3.5 minute little story using my crude setup here. You can listen to the mp3 file by clicking on this link. Be sure your sound is turned up.
UPDATE: After I posted this, I noticed visits from the radio station website. They've started a new feature, apparently, and you can listen to the Friday essay directly from their site!

I listened to your radio spot today. I thought it was very well done. What I really liked was the way your words expressed your feelings for your wife.

Wow... I was transported back in time to the narrative portions of the Waltons! Great voice, great words, very heart-warming. It's a style that has been missing from the air waves for too long. Good work and thanks!
