Starting with a $25 snowball mic, he has now done 127 audiobooks and has a growing queue of future work. It’s been a fun, diverse, interesting time. In this book he shares that journey as well as much of the info he’s picked up along the way about how to do it. See what the inside of the audiobook world looks like and the steps necessary for you be a part of it.
