The bayfm subscriber drive continues, this year it is a celebration of the local.\u00a0 At bayfm we have presenters, guests, volunteers, music, stories from all over the world.\u00a0 But we also very much do our best to link up this community, often with the help of this wonderful global linking tool, the internet.\u00a0 So you can now listen to us, and many local stations, from all over the world.\u00a0 But only on community radio stations can you hear the stories that are considered too small, too hidden, too local for national media.\u00a0 And every day hear interviews with all sorts of\u00a0 people in your community.\u00a0 This Monday I am very happy to bring you a man who grew up in Queensland, spent a lot of years of cooking & crazyness in Sydney & Brisbane, then cooked some more, & turned his life around,here in Northern NSW, and is now writing and teaching others to write.\u00a0 Jim Hearn’s first book, “High Season: a memoir of heroin and hospitality” was launched a few weeks ago in Byron Bay, and he was a guest at the 2012 Byron Bay Writers Festival.\u00a0 He is also a scriptwriter and lecturer at Southern Cross University in Lismore.<\/p>\n
