Audio books
Audiobooks have exploded in popularity over the last few years. Their fan base spans all generations, reading abilities, and disabilities, giving everyone the ability to fit reading into their busy lives. Having an audio version of your book will increase your audience by breaking down barriers, allowing your readers to listen on the go, in the car, whilst doing the dishes and more commonly nowadays via their mobile phone.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will I get to choose my voice?
You will have a choice of 2 voices, carefully selected by us, that are appropriate for your specific book.
How do I sell my audiobook?
We can distribute your book for you on Audible, Amazon and iTunes. Alternatively we can produce physical copies on CD/DVD, or we can simply provide a master for you to copy and distribute. All these options will be discussed with you when we put your contract together.
How much will it cost?
Our prices depend on complexity so please email us a few sample pages of your book, let us know your total wordcount, and we will give you a fixed quotation.
How long will it take?
Audiobooks typically take about 2 months to put together. Obviously the timing depends on the length of your book, but also on the number of amendments you request along the way. We will always try to get your book ready for distribution as quickly as possible, and there will be certain time commitments agreed in your contract.
