Writing a book is a tricky and occasionally daunting task. Nevertheless it can be quite gratifying and rewarding. Many that have written books have also self-published using services such as Lulu. And that’s great. But there is one thing the big publishers do to form an alternative market that most small publishers don’t do. And they should! It opens up a totally new market to you.
An expanding market that might become more significant as our population grows older. Ever considered producing audio books? You need to. There are a few benefits to selling audio books including less competition. And it’s straightforward to do. The simplest way is naturally to simply hire somebody to read your book for you. Firms are available which should hire the voice actor, supply the music, make the recording, edit the result and then package it. Either as one source or by outsourcing portions. Nevertheless it is not that complicated to do it yourself if you want. All it takes is a top quality set of telephones, a PC and the sufficient software.
Three things and you are ready to start writing a book. But what if you don’t have the voice for recording? One choice you have is to hire a voice actor. This is an actor who is comfortable using their voice alone to convey emotion.
Think radio announcer. Or think animation. If you are as old as I am you could even remember radio theatre. While voice actors tend to have more work than conventional players they can be discovered tolerably cost efficiently. An alternative choice is to utilise a pal or relation. If they’ve got a good sounding voice they’d possibly be in a position to do an acceptable recording for you.
