In last month’s InD’ear column, we looked at the Audiobook Creation Exchange (ACX) as a matchmaking site between authors and narrators. This month, we’ll continue the ACX process, from casting the narrator you love to living happily ever after with your completed audiobook. I should mention that ACX refers to everyone on the production side as a producer. Some producers only manage the project, but most producers are also the narrator with whom you will contract your book. Therefore, I’ll use these two words interchangeably. In most cases, one narrator will perform the entire book, giving voices to characters of both genders. You can find your ideal narrator by taking either of two non-mutually exclusive paths on ACX: contact narrators individually, or let them find your title. Either way, you will be dealing with auditions.
