adding more wheels to the wagon.

 I'm always looking for ways to get my books out there to readers. I had my eBooks with Draft2Digital. They recently offered Digital Voice audiobooks for free. Yeah!! I love Free. I had to do it. I already had some of my books with Findaway voices and paid a narrator/producer. 

Then Findaway merged with spotifi and now they are INaudio. My poor brain. I had just created several books created with digital voices through D2D. Some of them have made it to IN audio but some have not. I'm scrambling to get all the metadata moved over.

The hardest part is the book covers. The audiobook covers must be 2400 by to 2400 square. Here's where AI comes in handy. I had to convince CHATGBT exactly what I wanted it to do. It got it right but after several tries. CHATGBT spit out 1024 by 1024 and I had to expand and resize to 2400 by 2400. 

Now I have wait for the review which can take up to 30 days.

The other thing I've been doing is putting my eBooks up on Google Play Books. That's another challenge, getting all the metadata and waiting again for approval. I'm working on my Florida Wildlife Heroes Series first. https://amzn.to/3Tvm8V1

I think I'm getting too old for this.
