What is island living like?  Why some students shouldn&#8217;t go to college?  How did these writers get started writing?
Guests:
Eva Murray, murray@midcoast.com, www.safelyouttosea.com
Robert Klose, klose@maine.edu
Eva Murray moved from the Rockland area to Matinicus Island in 1987 after being hired to teach at the island&#8217;s one-room school. Two years later, after marrying the island electrician, she stayed on to raise their family. Over the years, Murray has become an emergency medical technician, operated a small bakery, begun the community recyling program, been first responder to emergencies both real and imagined, and undertaken a number of roles in municipal government and other local organizations. Since 2003, she has been a regular columnist for several publications, including Maine Boats, Homes &#038; Harbors, Working Waterfront, Village Soup (Rockland), The Free Press, and Down East Online. Well out to Sea&#8211;Year-Round on Matinicus Island, her first book, is a collection of short essays describing life there from the perspective of someone who has never spent a single day of vacation on the Island.
Robert Klose lives on the banks of the Penobscot River in Orono.  He divides his time between his two adoptive sons from Russia and the Ukraine, teaching biology at University College of Bangor, and writing essays for The Christian Science Monitor.  Besides his newly-released book, The Three-Legged Woman &#038; Other Excursions in Education, he is the author of two previous books, Adopting Alyosha — A Single Man Finds a Son in Russia, and Small Worlds — Adopted Sons, Pet Piranhas &#038; Other Mortal Concerns.  His work has also appeared in Newsweek, The Boston Globe, Reader&#8217;s Digest, Exquisite Corpse, and elsewhere.  Klose is a Fulbright Scholar and a four-time winner of the Maine Press Association&#8217;s annual award for opinion writing. </itunes:summary>

Susan Shetterly from Surry reads from her just-published book,  Settled in the Wild. Cynthia Thayer from Gouldsboro, author of three novels&#8211;Strong for Potatoes, A Certain Slant of Light, and A Brief Lunacy, reads from her new work. Jacqueline Michaud of Stonington reads from her recent book White Clouds and other work.

Where can these recent books be bought?  How do writers deal with relatives and friends who appear in your work?  How do you go about writing an historical novel?</itunes:summary>

		<itunes:summary>Producer/Host: Joan Clemons
Studio Engineer: Joel Mann
A tribute to coastal Washington County poet, M. Kelly Lombardi. Members of her Salt Coast Sages poetry workshop will discuss her influence on them, and read some of her work.
Lombardi, who died on September 9, 2008, was the founder and leader of the Salt Coast Sages in Machias. She taught poetry, specializing in international poets, particularly contemporary Irish poets, in Sunrise Senior College at the University of Maine in Machias, and facilitated poetry workshops. She also lectured on antique roses and raised close to 50 varieties herself.
Each year she traveled to Ireland to refresh her music and poetry interests, and to Italy where she stayed at a 12th century Augustinian monastery to &#8220;write and write.&#8221; &#8220;Ireland,&#8221; she said, &#8220;is my ancestral home; Italy my spiritual home, coastal Maine is my home harbor.&#8221;
Guests: &#8220;The Salt Coast Sages&#8221; from Washington County&#8211;Gerald George, Sharon Bray, Don Crane, Grace Sheridan and Philip Rose.</itunes:summary>

Topic: Love Song to Maine: Tradition, love poems, Maine poems, WERU
Guest: Pat Ranzoni (pranzoni@aol.com)
Mixed blood Yankee, Patricia Smith Ranzoni, was born in the Katahdin region to a Canadian-American woodcutter and farm girl from Orland and Castine, both descended from European settlers to Indian territory in what became Massachusetts then Maine, their roots mixing in relation with Native Americans and First Canadians. She grew up in Bucksport where she now writes from one of the subsistence farms of her youth.
Her unschooled documentary poems have been published across the country and abroad, and she is a frequent reader and reciter around Maine. In 2002 she became the first poet from the northern reach of the Appalachian Chain to be invited to read at the University of Ohio, Zanesville, Women of Appalachia Conference. Her work has been used in Colby College’s “Many Maines” course and by University of Maine  departments of history and English, and is being acquired by Fogler Library’s Special Collections and other archives of Maine history, class, and women’s studies.
Books: CLAIMING (1995), SETTLING (2000), ONLY HUMAN ~ Poems from the Atlantic Flyway (Sheltering Pines Press, 2005).
Questions this program may have answered for listeners:
What are some Maine traditions? How do Maine cultures connect with other cultures?
How are winters today like winters past for long-time natives keeping the old ways?</itunes:summary>
