A quality audiobook has no dogs barking in the background, no aircraft flying overhead, and no sirens blasting down the street in front of your house-and though this might sound self-evident, the equivalent happens with self-published printed books all the time.
Audiobook production requires professional recording gear and talent. Reading your book into your computer’s microphone doesn’t cut it. The same category on contains 92,014 titles.Īs with any form of publishing, a chasm exists between “getting your book out there” and producing a quality, professional product. My book is one of only 5,936 books available in the “Personal Memoirs” category. Split that catalog apart by genres and even if you’re small fish, the endless ocean of books available in print or eBook form becomes a small pond. The market for audiobooks is currently worth over US$2 billion. Through ACX (Audiobook Creation Exchange), I was able to audition voiceover talent, choose a professional producer, review the work in progress, and make my audiobook available through popular audiobookstores without spending a cent.
