#020 ACX Audiobook production


Listen Later

On this episode I describe my experience getting signed up with ACX to record and produce audiobooks. I like to read, but mostly I like to learn new things and engage my mind with fascinating topics. Audiobooks are an amazing way to do just that. I feel very lucky to live in a time where that much information is available to flow into your mind through your ears while your driving, or mowing the lawn, or cooking dinner, just like podcasts. When I heard that any yahoo with a microphone could attempt to produce audiobooks I had to give it a try. What follows is a description of my experiences creating an ACX profile and a little later, getting an offer to produce my first book.
