THE Home Studio AUDIOBOOK HANDBOOK is a ‘MUST HAVE’ unique work, comprehensively covering the neglected, often uncharted, grey area between self publishing authors, audiobook narrators and audiobook publishers. It is indispensible, thought provoking and reassuring to anyone who wishes to convert a published print book into a commercial audiobook, and to anyone who wishes to narrate and produce one. It constructively covers all of the potential problems and pitfalls and the ever-evolving opportunities for those wishing to take advantage of them. It is suitable for all levels and ages from non-technical beginner to expert. ALL will learn a lot!
