Why are Audio Books a good choice
for authors as an additional
channel of distribution?
-
Accessibility and Convienence: Listening to Audio Books while doing chores, excecising, or just relaxing allows readers to experience your books anhy time! Audio Books help those with visual impairments, dyslexia, or other reading difficulties get access to your fiction and poetry, and enhance leaning the steps to a topic you are teaching.
-
Enhanced Learning and Engagement: Listening can be particularly helpful for understanding complex narratives or technical information. Audio Books expose readers to new words and phrases in a context they can readily undrestand. Professiona narrators, music, and sound effects can create a more immersive reading experience.
-
Personal Preferencews and Benefits: Audio Books can be a relaxing way to unwind and escape. Listening to a human voice can heighten emotional responses and foster empathy, as opposed to AI generated narration, which can be flat and disengageing.

Classic Audio Book Narration
Audio Books can be as diverse as a book's printed pages. Just like a paperback's interior formatting can influence the reading experience with visual elements such as special fonts, illustrations, and variable paragraph spacing...
Audio Books can transport and enhance a listener's experience of a story with creative layers of sound.
The Laughing Wolfe Media Audio Book narration style presents the story with a full range of creative characterization, tonnal and emotional development, and depth. The voice artist makes use of a sincere delivery with inflection of tone where appropriate to allow the reader to imagine the chararcters, scenes, and locations in a way that brings them to life for the listeners!
What Does It Cost?
After settling into the world of Audiobooks, Laughing Wolfe Media is adjusting it's pricing structure to better reflect the professional landscape. From now on, LWM will charge $350 Per Finished Hour for audiobook projects - meaning rates are based on each hour of recording delivered, rather than on an overall word count.
For reference, a Finished Hour of audio is roughly equivalent to 10,000 words on the page.
This rate remodeling reflects a significant reduction in LWM's Audiobook pricing - and in the spirit of the holidays, we thought we'd throw in a little extra:
Laughing Wolfe Media is offering Bundle Discounts!
