If you want to learn how to write radio drama here are some links to places that tell you how.  There are also tons of other links dealing with Radio Drama in English on here.  Some articles are in PDF.  Most things are in English, some are not.  I tried to list things in categories the best I could.  There is probably more stuff out there, this is what I could find easily.  If you know of any more, let me know.  This is probably not an exhaustive list.  I compiled this list by typing both "how to write" and "Radio Drama", into Google.  I did another search with just "Christian Radio Drama" and found a few more links. 

See also "Radio Favorites" page for a list of radio books that I have.  I will list the books about radio dram that I have.

These are not always in order from best to worst.  At first I was doing that, but then I just stuck them on the bottom of the section as I found them.  If I found an exceptional one, I put it near the top in the right spot.  Sometimes the same entry can be found in two sections. 

In no way do I endorse, condone or otherwise believe 100% of everything in the links listed here!! (I certainly don't believe in all the "Progressive" ideas listed under, " 'Entertainment-Education' Using Radio Drama for Social Change".)  I just found these links and listed them.  You make of them what you will.
