I'm sincerely sorry he wasn't able to help you.

I actually found someone who has an amazing voice.

How do you go about marketing your books, making people aware of them, and convincing people to buy them?

I can relate to some of these struggles. I've written for years and only earlier this year started to share some of that with people beyond my small knit circle of friends.

I'm still trying to grow things, in many regards, but it mainly has been just getting more things presentable and out. I've somehow ended up with a written medium, my own narration, and even this week having an associate use an AI to dub a large amount of chapters.

Working on this and working in the extreme AM is rather taxing

The amazon stuff sounds interesting, I hope this isn't too much of a jumbled mess. Curiosity drove me here as I was checking things after work.

I post my stuff every week on Facebook, which admittedly can be hit or miss. ACX also makes available what are called promo codes, which can make your audiobook available to potential reviewers. To be honest, selfpromotion is hardly my strength.

My neighbors said that they liked my book--I hope that they weren't JUST being nice. I did a search for ideas--one idea is to sell them at farmers' markets. It could get awkward--there are a lot of Republicans in my area, and I'm lambasting Republicans in my book.

Just as long as they buy your book. I've had people who promised to buy my books, then never did.

One paid cash for a copy. The other one is an underpaid school librarian who is just barely surviving. I gave her a copy for free. She said that she was laughing out loud while reading it, which is a good sign. I had one sale on Amazon.

I would feel really bad for the narrator if we don't sell any audiobooks. He has such a talented voice. Perfect for my story.
