Audio interview
Writers on Writing is a weekly radio program hosted
by journalist and
author Barbara DeMarco-Barrett. Each Thursday at 5pm Pacific, writers,
poets and literary agents join her. Broadcast from the studios of
KUCI-FM in Orange County, CA, it is simulcast
worldwide at www.kuci.org. (That's UC Irvine).
On December 11,
2003, the
interviewees were Peter Levitt and Jane Anne Staw. I took the liberty
of editing the file to skip directly to Jane Anne's portion. The
resulting file is 23 minutes in length and 10+ MB in size. If you're on
dial-up, I suggest you skip listening downloading this file.
Instructions:
PC users -
Right-click on the link (below) and specify a location to save the mp3
file. Make sure you'll be able to find it later! Most folks suggest
saving it to the Desktop. Double-click the file to start playing it w/
your default player (Winamp, Windows Media Player, etc.). If, instead,
you left-click on the link, the file will download to a 'Temp' folder
and play automatically upon completion.
MAC users -
You're on your own, but I believe the procedure is similar.
