My psychological
thriller, The Prodigal Son, is now available as an
audio book on iTunes and Audible via Amazon.com.
The Prodigal
Son is a story about a teenager's refusal
to attend school which leads to criminal charges against his parents and
disastrous consequences for him. His parent's recent divorce, his father's hasty
remarriage, his brother's leaving for college leave Andrew Tibbet in a desperate
whirlwind of emotions. Using revenge as his weapon of choice Andrew sets out to
destroy his family emotionally and financially. Psychologist, Allyson Freemont,
comes to understand the boy's anger and frustration when she learns the
disturbing truth about what's been happening behind closed doors.

I do a 50/50 royalty
deal with the narrator. This does not cost me any money up front and it also
opens up an entirely new source of contacts. The narrators have their own
network and are eager to promote the audio book to earn royalties and to grow
their talents with more and more exposure within their theatrical
world.
Audio books
are my biggest sales revenue. The
audience is a smaller but these folks are eager to find new books in audio
format. Not too many authors publish audio books, thus, there
is less competition for those of those of us who do.
It's an easy process via
ACX (Audio Creation Exchange) and it's FREE.
Please tell your SWW

Splitting the royalty is a much better deal.
ReplyDeleteI used this narrator, Sheila Cavalette, for five of my audio books, and I couldn't ask for more. She is easy to work with and highly professional. She is also a good promoter! It's all a win-win ~
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this Carolyn. I listen to audio books from Audible and my online library all the time! I've always wanted to narrate my book. Okay, another task for my "To Do" list.
