The Radio Schedule

Original unseen fiction written for this paper.

1

Isa kept the station’s online request list and called the quietest hour unpopular. She suggested removing it from the schedule to make room for a new show.

2

A listener sent a handwritten request because the online form would not load on his device. Another listened during a work break and never used the form. Isa realized that the list recorded one route for responding, not every way of listening.

3

She kept the list, opened a second way to send requests and described the limits in her report. Her revised recommendation was a trial with two feedback routes. She no longer called silence the same thing as absence.

A Different Count

Original unseen poem written for this paper.

1

A dial glows in the empty room; we call no answer proof of gloom. Across the street a window shines; a listener hears between our lines.

A Changed Heading

Original unseen dramatic scene written for this paper.

1

EDEN: The form has no requests for that hour. [Kit places a folded letter beside the keyboard.] KIT: This one arrived by post. EDEN: Then my heading is wrong. [Eden changes “listeners” to “online requests.”]

Survey and Trial Records

Explicitly fictional analytical evidence for this paper.

1

A fictional station survey asked thirty club respondents about a revised schedule; twenty-one favored a trial. A supervisor required an adult producer. Two test broadcasts received nine and thirteen online requests. Total listeners and learning outcomes were not measured.

Permitted conventions

BCE/CE dates use no year 0. A quotation repeats exact wording; a paraphrase still needs source credit. Fictional cases are labeled and must not be reported as genuine historical or measured evidence.
