Thank you, "M.K. Williams" for Book Publishing and Audiobooks Education Channel, for all the valuable insights and resources you provide! Your content has been incredibly helpful for navigating the world of audiobooks and publishing, making complex topics so much easier to understand. I truly appreciate the time and effort you put into each video, guiding authors and creators on their journey. I have a question: Can I use AI as the narrator for audiobooks on the Findaway Voices platform? Thank you!
Thanks for this. I have poems so probably want a human as correcr phrasing is essential. How would I go about acquiring someone? Also how would a platform know that your 'human voice' is not AI via the likes of elevenlabs and thus not restrict where you can place your audiobook
The ai voices are good but human voice is detectable with very tell tale imperfections that ai can't mimic (irregular breathes being one of them). You can find narrators anywhere. Findaway Voices and ACX can help pair authors and narrators
@@1MKWilliams A valid note that I find many overlook though is that ACX is not available to all countries - including mine. Findaway only allows GooglePlay AI (which is terrible). It's a shame that more distributors aren't open to distributing ai audio - I'll probably go with youtube
I'm reading my novel on UA-cam while proofreading. Hopefully I'll be ready to narrate my own book. Your videos are very informative. Thank you❤ Definitely subscribing! AI narration totally sucks.
Humans all the way!
I love that you narrated some of your own books!
Thank you! It was fun and a really good learning experience. Makes me appreciate all the work the pros do
❤Great info. I am an audiobook queen. I primarily listen to my fiction books. Probably 50+ a year. I use Everest (formerly Scribd).
That is awesome!! Way to go!
Interesting, thanks.
Thanks for watching!

Happy to help. Yes, you can use the Google Play auto-narration with Findaway Voices

What basic equipment do we need to sound good making audio books ? Ex microphones etc can they do a video on equipment for us for newbies?
I go over quite of bit of audiobook narration for newbies in this video: ua-cam.com/video/fvGOQ20bCEI/v-deo.html
@@1MKWilliams thank you so very much
I only read older fiction books now because I assume everyone is just using ai. Non fiction doesn't matter as much.
What’s your favourite fiction author currently? I’m on book 21 of Daniel Silvia’s series about Gabriel Alon. Loving them
3:58 🤣after this no more bro problems😅
😂😂😂
Can you publish the audiobook to Ream?
I think that is a feature they are working on to roll out soon (or they may have just rolled it out)

That is such a great idea. Best of luck on your book!
AI narrated audiobooks are horrible. Much like AI written books, it takes the soul out of art. As a small time narrator I have an obvious bias though.
