I receive a lot of inquiries regarding what it takes to create an audio book. Below is the basics of the response of what an author can do to create an audio book via Encouraging Audiobooks.

...Encouraging Audiobooks has a new 5 week Podcasting course which will not only help people create a podcast, but will also teach them extensive recording and editing techniques. I am holding this in June 2005 (space is limited to 24 students - 15 seats are left). This course will be available as an audio and video course on CD by the end of July 2005. It teaches recording, editing, music mixing, RSS, storage, bandwidth and vocal coaching, in case you want to do it all yourself, and also promote your audio book via blog and podcasting. That is $199 for the original 5 week class, plus a 128 MB MP3 player (while supplies last), and all classes will be recorded and shipped to you on cd. (*Please note that the class price will increase to $249.99 after the original class is completed. If you would like to attend the class or pre-order the CD set at the $199, you will need to do so prior to July 1, 2005). You can register for the class by clicking here. [Read More!]
