As a published author, you already went through the whole process of submitting a manuscript, editing it, designing the cover art, and finally getting your book out there into the world. Now, it is time to expand your audience even further and turn your book into an audiobook.
What do you need to do to get started? All you need to do is talk to one of our agents here at Cloverly Audiobook and then send us a PDF or Microsoft Word document of your book, whether it be a print book or digital eBook. As long as you send us the published version of your work in either of those formats, we will be able to get started working on the rest.
We want your audiobook to match your previously published book as much as possible, so make sure you do not send us an unfinished, pre-publication draft. That would just confuse the production process as well as your audience.
Once our team receives your Word document or PDF, we can begin focusing our work on the technical side of creating an audiobook. This includes, but is not limited to, matching your book to someone in our voice talent pool who matches your vision, creating an audiobook cover that aligns with the print or digital edition of your book, and publishing your audiobook for sale in the same listing as your published work.
Since your audiobook is based on your already-published material, there is less of an editorial procedure than when publishing a new book. You already went through the editing process! We just want to make sure the finished audiobook works in tandem with your print or digital book to create a cohesive product that will reach the largest audience possible.
