From the reader perspective, the best thing Aidible ever did was institute their return policy. It takes the risk out of trying new books & narrators. But that means authors can lose their hard-earned royalty in the click of a button. If it's because the book wasn't a good fit for the reader, that's sad but legitimate. If it's because you went with your brother's buddy's girlfriend as narrator cause she'd do it for $100, that was just stupid business savvy. I don't tend to return books for the first reason, but I'll return books in a Heartstriker heartbeat for the second. <br /><br />I'm curious about Audible setting the prices on the books produced through them. If they set the price at $39.99, but I purchase with a credit that cost me $12.99, which do they base the royalty on??

I'd recently been approached by a producer to create an audio version of my first book, but for the genre "space opera" there's not been the best match for talent in terms of a narrator... yet! But I hope to put some of this useful intel in action for Allies and Enemies.Amy J.

I believe the that visa versa is also true.<br /><br />There's all kinds of other discounts that Amazon and audible through in as well, but that's the general cause of the pricing irregularities. <br /><br />I don't know if or how that affects royalties. Acx and audible reporting is a little less detailed as compared to say, kdp.Travis Bachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02462838657483444088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7467549889510324132.post-1798316225120999612016-05-23T15:48:51.949-05:002016-05-23T15:48:51.949-05:00I am wondering how Kindle Unlimited and add narrat...I am wondering how Kindle Unlimited and add narration to ebook purchase fit it. Some Kindle Unlimited books are read/listen for free while others are read for free add audible for low price. Many ebooks have special price if you buy ebook and add audible. Who sets those prices? Some are a real bargain and some aren't any cheaper than getting them through audible membership. <br /><br />As some who reads and listens to books, I have been influenced many times by the add narration option when it is a really good price. It was for the Heartstrikers series for example! <br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03754069593737153051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7467549889510324132.post-13698714855536361312016-05-23T10:02:09.666-05:002016-05-23T10:02:09.666-05:00Love my Audible library. Coming from someone who ... Love my Audible library. Coming from someone who spends a ton on Audio books. Seriously way to much. It's all about the narrator narrator and narrator. A narrator will make the book and or destroy a series if you change mid way.<br /><br /> A big example would be all the Legend of Drizzt saga books, Victor Bevine is the main Narrator for most of the them, but some wise person decided to change it up on some of the books and did not have Victor doing it, you can see the ratings of those books went into the gutter. Another example is The Hollows by Kim Harrison, narrator was changed book 6 and I was so pissed I refunded that book and totally stopped the series forever. <br /><br /> Bottom line, DO NOT change the Narrator once you have a great one ( cough Vikas & Luke!) Audible listeners are VERY critical of the person reading to them. MrFesterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14176076524104345788noreply@blogger.com
