Do You Hear What I Hear, Part II

Posted on July 24, 2013

acxIn Part I of this mini-series, I talked about my debut foray into audio book creation–with the redoubtable Lloyd Sherr of the History Channel’s Modern Marvels show narrating A Reason to Live.

The project is now out of our hands and in its final validation phase with audio book producer ACX, which is checking for sound quality and consistency. Once ARTL passes this quality control phase, it will be available on Audible.com, Amazon, and iTunes. There will no doubt be a part III to this series upon my muddling through promoting the audio book, which is going to be a very different animal from ebook or print promotion.

In the meantime, however, I wanted to give you a few highlights of my experiences working with Lloyd and submitting our project to ACX. There were a few bumps along the way–hopefully, these warning signs will help you when you take your own plunge into the audio book market.

emsyteryHey Folks –

If you’re over my April Fool’s scare, why don’t you head on over to www.emysterybargains.com. It’s the brainchild of frequent visitor to this blog, managing editor of Cemetery Dance magazine, and fellow writer Brian Freeman.

He’s got both a Mystery and a Horror blog that features one awesomely-priced book each day. The site has featured the novels of such notables as James Patteson, Dean Koontz, and Jeffery Deaver, all of them low-priced for a short time or, like mine, less than than the price of a grande skim latte at Starbucks.

There’s no cost to you; Brian makes a little bit of change of each sale by way of the Amazon Affiliate program. Give it a gander if you’ve got a second: www.emysterybargains.com
