Listener Essays on WMRA

Is there a subject about which you feel strongly? Would you like to add your voice to the other voices heard on public radio? If so, how about writing three and a half minutes worth of your thoughts on that subject and sending them to us?

We’re gathering listener essays to air on WMRA during Morning Edition and All Things Considered. If your essay is accepted, we’ll arrange for you to record it.

Questions? Contact Martha Woodroof by email or phone 800-677-9672. Essays should be submitted to wmra@jmu.edu.
