NPR

Anyone have any success stories or advice about getting your authors airtime on public radio stations?

Public radio is a great asset to the community, and many of our authors could benefit greatly by being featured on their programs.

We're working on pitching David Elkinton's book, Fighting to Protect the Highlands: The First Forty Years of the West Virginia Highlands Conservancy, to NPR stations in Appalachia, hoping to have him featured on a program such as Studio Virginia (in the Roanoke area) or Inside Appalachia (in West Virginia).

Before the holiday, Paula Stanley, Radford University Professor and author of Finding Endurance, was featured on Studio Virginia to discuss her book of poems published by Pocahontas Press. We're hoping that Paula will is the first of many Pocahontas Press authors to be featured on public radio.
