AN INSIGHT ON: AUDIOBOOKS. This evening I want to give you an insight: if you dream of becoming an author but has difficulties • signing with a publisher house • booking a meeting with a publisher house • getting started on the ‘getting signed with a publisher house’ process because of the amount of work you think you have to put into it • going for your dream because of the fear of rejection Then this is for you! Every 3 month I receive a statement on my book sale from my publisher house. And I can tell you this: audiobooks is thriving! Personally then I published by latest book as a hardcover, ebook and audiobook. My point here is: it is the easiest thing in the world to record an audiobook (unless you’re super pregnant like I was, swipe for picture). The process of doing that is almost only 1. Book a studio2. Press play, pause and stop 3. Save your recording I had a company that edited mine together, but I’m sure you can do it yourself too. Being signed with a publisher house has a lot of good things about it when it comes to: getting your book in the shops (physical and online), on trade fairs, they have graphic designers to do the layout of your book and so on. BUT if you have a great audience yourself, can do some magic with the visual layout and hire someone to correct your gramma, then you’ll be fine. At least: think about it. Maybe push away the dream of publishing a hardcover book (for a while) and go for the audiobook instead. ❤️ xx J ** DM/EMAIL me if you need help with making your dreams come true. @xxjasminsoe / www.xxjasminsoe.com
