Once a book is written, it takes a whole team to make it possible to share with readers.
That's especially the case when the time comes to create the audiobook format. I've previously written about the process I use to get my audiobooks to market, and you can read about that here.
For this month's Author Update on my YouTube channel, I thought I'd go a step further and show you who's involved in bringing the Detective Kay Hunter audiobooks to life.
Join me as I travel to Audio Factory's studio in the Somerset countryside.
You'll meet narrator Alison Campbell and producers Arran and Dave, find out what questions I asked about recording a story, and discover how they bring each of the Kay Hunter audiobooks, including BRIDGE TO BURN, to life.
Questions and Answers
What is the production process for an audiobook?
This behind-the-scenes update focuses on the collaborative effort required to produce the Detective Kay Hunter audiobooks. Amphlett travels to a recording studio to meet the narrator and producers who work together to bring her characters and stories to life
How many unique character voices can a narrator handle in one book?
Narrators prepare by marking up scripts with character tones and pronunciations, practicing distinct voices, and recording samples for author approval. Narrators must find a unique voice for every character, even those with only one line.
