More links and advice - get psyched
The web is full of pointers, dos and don'ts, and general advice for would-be radio hosts of all levels. We'll be serving up lots more links and advice over the next few months, but here are a few to get you started.
Shout Out! A Kid's Guide to Recording Stories from Transom. Especially for young beginners who want to do interviews but don't know where to start.
Beginnings... from Transom. A collection of personal radio firsts: a print journalist learning to write for radio; a cross-country "independent study" in radio; a chronicle of one radio newbie's very first piece (for Morning Edition, no less).
Voicing the Newscast from the Canadian Society for Independent Radio Production. For anybody who's still getting used to hearing their voice recorded, or who wants a few tips on sounding better in front of a mic.
Radio College from the Association of Independents in Radio. A knowledge base of articles on wide-ranging topics - ever wondered how to eliminate mic pops, or wished somebody would explain the legal ins and outs of using music? Look no further - click on "Resource Guide" near the top.

The link to the TAL comic book "How to Write for Radio" is broken. They completely redesigned their site with the debut of the television show. They also took down the comic book pages, and simply offer it in their online store for $5. Granted, it's well worth that $5.
You can see one page online via Google's cache (search "How to Write for Radio" and click "cache" under the proper search result.)
Suggestion to the TAL store: put one page up in the online store as a sample of what's inside.
