Audiobooks are an exciting medium for reaching new readers. However, the process can be daunting to the uninitiated. Author, podcaster, and audiobook narrator George Sirois will share the steps of audiobook production from beginning to end in this practical, informative presentation. Topics covered will include the pros and cons of author narrators, technical aspects and hosting, how to market your audiobook, and many other aspects of the craft. George would love to answer all your questions about the spoken word’s role in great storytelling.
