Over the past few years, Nelson Lauver's nationally syndicated radio feature "The American Storyteller Radio Journal" has established a dedicated U.S. listener base. Fans refer to his stories as unique, timeless and "great radio" and have likened his style to that of Charles Kuralt and Mark Twain. Now, the complete library of these 4-minute radio stories is available free online at www.TheAmericanStoryteller.com. Visitors to the site can search the approximately 300 story library by keyword or over 20 topics -- then listen to, download, link to, or send the story to a friend. Each 4-minute, mp3 story is broadcast quality and available in high speed or dial-up versions. There is also a free "story of the week" feature whereby visitors can sign up to automatically receive a new story link every Wednesday. While the average listener demographic is 24 to 60 years of age, stories are suitable for all ages. Subjects range from hometown America to interesting incidents and individuals, real people profiles, American History, etc.
