S5 E5 -Getting Started Narrating Audiobooks with Audacity

THE SIDNEY ST. JAMES SHOW

Getting started narrating audiobooks in Audacity is important for indie authors, especially for people who’ve written personal books like memoirs. While the best results come from working with professional narrators and producers, some authors may find it financially or creatively rewarding to carry out the process themselves. The DIY route requires slightly more time and effort, especially when adopting new audio engineering skills. In this episode of "So You Want to be an Author" we will show several easy steps that will make you sound like a professional disc jockey on the radio!
