Self-Narrating and Producing an Audiobook for Newbie Authors | Authortube Writing Conference 2023

Many new authors don't have the budget to hire a professional narrator or audiobook producer. In this presentation, I will walk authors through the process to prepare their audiobook script, how to record it in Audacity, and then mastering the files so they are approved by ACX or Findaway Voices. I taught myself how to do this the hard way. Learning these skills can help them save time and money on their author journey.
