"Want your voice to be heard? Then start by reading (or listening to) this book. Jessica Kaye's 6 Rules of Audiobook Publishing will make your recordings sound better and reach more listeners." ~Matthew Rubery, author of The Untold Story of the Talking Book

"Jessica Kaye is the best of the best. She was with me syllable for syllable as I read my memoir–she laughed when I did, got choked up when we couldn't help it, and told me how to pronounce words I'd been saying in my head wrong all these years. Recording with Jessica will always be one of the high points of my career as an author. I'm first in line at her studio, hoping to record my next book!" ~Hope Jahren, author of Lab Girl

"Thorough! Exhaustive! Accessible! As I read The Guide to Publishing Audiobooks, these three descriptions came to mind from beginning until end. Far more inclusive than a guide, Kaye has, quite simply, produced the audio publisher's bible. Pen in one hand, bonhomie in the other, she has managed to tell us everything we must know about what it takes to succeed as an audiobook publisher." ~Paul Alan Ruben, writer, two-time Grammy-winning audiobook producer, director, and storytelling teacher

"Start your audiobook journey off right and increase your chances of success in the market with industry veteran Jessica Kaye's comprehensive guide!" ~Michele Cobb, Executive Director, Audio Publishers Association, and publisher of AudioFile Magazine and MMB Media
