Audiobook Narration and Production
10
I will take your manuscript and turn it into a fully recorded and edited, ready-for-retail audiobook. I can also help you get it published to Audible, Amazon, and iTunes at no additional cost.
My pricing varies depending on what you need. All prices negotiable depending on your budget and scope of project. I will also consider accepting a royalty share agreement as part or all of your payment, at my discretion.
FULL SERVICE:
You get a completely polished, ready for retail, audiobook and I'll help you get it onto Audible, Amazon, and iTunes.
My price for FULL SERVICE is .05 simbi per word, with a minimum of 10 simbi for 200 words or less).
RAW RECORDING:
You get a raw recording of the narration, with ten seconds of room tone, and all mistakes, bloopers, and retakes left in. This gives you creative freedom to edit it yourself (and create a gag reel) or the opportunity to choose your own editor. When you're done, I will help you get it onto Audible, iTunes, and Amazon.
My price for RAW RECORDING is .01 simbi per word, with a minimum of 10 simbi for 1000 words or less.
FAQ:
Q: Why are you charging by the word and not the hour?
A: I like keeping things transparent. Charging by word keeps the surprise fees out and you don't have to worry that I'm drinking coffee or playing skyrim on your dime.
Q: How long will this take?
A: It depends on my current workload and the length and type of your project. FULL SERVICE will obviously take longer, but I can turn around a RAW RECORDING relatively quickly. Contact me for an estimate!
Q: I need this done by next week/tomorrow/tonight. Can you do that?
A: Again, this depends on my workload. We can work out a "rush delivery" price to bring you to the top of my list. Contact me for an estimate!
Q: I really want you to record my audiobook, but I don't think I can afford it...
A: Let's talk about it. I'm always open to discuss royalty share deals, trading services, or a mixture of simbi and my standard rate in USD (1 simbi = $1 in this case).
Q: Can you do different voices for different characters?
A: Heck yeah, I can! I want your audiobook to sound awesome.
Q: Can I hear a sample of your work?
A: You can hear tons. Search for my name ("Persephone Rose") on Audible and you can listen to sample clips of several audiobooks I have already done. Listen to a variety of them to get an idea of my full range (I sometimes change the voice of the narration to fit the needs of the title).
Q: My book can cure cancer and end world hunger. Will you record it for free?
A: If you're telling the truth, yes.
