Audiobook questions.
Should I narrate my own book?
Your own voice might suit memoir, teaching, or a book tied to your speaking work. Try a sample first. A professional narrator might suit a novel with several characters or a manuscript you prefer to hand off.
What if my book is already published?
Check who controls the audio rights before recording. Bring your latest manuscript and any existing recordings to the strategy call.
Does production include distribution?
Audio Release includes submission support for agreed channels. Retailers and distributors set their own approval requirements. Your proposal identifies who manages the accounts and which channels are included.
