Navigating Narration and Other Issues in Audio Books, with Kat Richardson
Audio books are currently one of the hottest formats for modern readers, but even if you’re a corporate-published author, or an old hand at self-pub print and ebook, audio may still be a bit of a challenge, or even seemingly impossible dream. Editor and best-selling author Kat Richardson will provide info, tips, and useful links for getting started with audio as a self-pubbed, or hybrid author. From costs, understanding narration and choosing a reader, or working with an audio packager, to options for distribution, pricing, and royalties, you’ll get the basics for success in independent audio.
