About and Contact

My name is Marco Angelo McClean. Hi, there. Memo Of The Air – Good Night Radio is a radio show on KNYO (107.7fm) in Fort Bragg, California, 9pm Friday night local time to 5am, and currently, for the first hour of the show, also on KAKX in Mendocino*. On Friday nights from 9pm (California time) until very late (usually after 4am) I read local writing and stories and articles from the web and from books and magazines. And I play old music and old-time radio drama from my collection and new music that catches my ear.

Email me stories and poems you write and I’ll read them on the very next Memo of the Air. My email address is memoNOSPAM@mcn.org (remove NOSPAM for the address to work). There’s no length rule, though I might split a very long piece into several parts over several shows. Also, if you tell me in your email about what time you want me to read your work, I’ll try to remember to read it then so you can be ready to hear it live, or so you can easily find it in the recording later.

I’m certain that the best way to learn to write is to write for an audience and sit in that audience and listen to a stranger reading what you wrote. You hear immediately what to change and how to express yourself better in your unique style. Try it and see.

This weblog is partly about my radio show and partly a place to post links to things that are worthwhile but that don’t necessarily translate well to radio. I find them mostly via the websites in the blogroll column to your right.
