Podcast Summary
Creating an Audiobook from 'The Market Gardener': A creator transformed Jean Martin Fortier's book into an audiobook, overcoming challenges in voice over work, studio setup, and meeting specifications for a professional sound.
The creator of this podcast has completed a significant project by turning Jean Martin Fortier's book "The Market Gardener" into an audiobook. This was a long-term goal of his, and it involved a lot of preparation and hard work. He had to wait until after the birth of his third daughter and the completion of another project before he could start this new endeavor. The process was challenging for him as he had no prior experience with voice over work or extensive reading out loud. He built a studio in his garage to ensure professional quality sound and hopes that the audio translates well in the final product. The audiobook will be available on Amazon through Audible and had to meet their specifications. The creator is proud of the outcome and plans to share more about the making of the audiobook and what he learned from re-reading Fortier's book in a future episode.
