according to THIS manga オリンポス by あき will have a Drama CD. Release date 16/7/2009.

オリンポス seems to be ongoing manga with only vol.1 released so far

あき 's another manga   歌姫 --- うたひめ ----already has a Drama CD. A very lovely thing!

and あき is a very unfortunate pen-name for a mangaka ... very difficult to track down...  (((

Lower Intermediate Lesson #1 - Scary Fairy Tale

化け物 --- ばけもの--- monster

I already knew the word, but still being stupid and forgetful I had to look it up while reading the manga: 銀の風 遠い刻  by 小田切ほたる (Odagiri Hotaru)
**facepalm**  though now I guess I remembered it for life :)

Onomatopoeia #2 - Japanese Animal Sounds

ワンワン、ニャンニャン

manga:
わんことにゃんこ 1
わんことにゃんこ 2
by 天咲吉実  (Amasaki Yoshimi)

it really explains the title of the manga by Amasaki Yoshimi - usually translated as Dog x Cat ^___^

and there are drama CDs based on both volumes
Wanko to Nyanko
Wanko to Nyanko 2
I have not yet listen them, but now I want to!
