Audiobook Price Schedule

The general charge for audiobook narration and production is 0.04 USD per word. Keep in mind that I use the work-for-hire model where I will have no future stake in your book sales.

For the best explanation of what I offer, see the Audiobook Production page.

The minimum project charge will be $100 per project. 50% of the calculated project charge is required up-front before recording and production can begin.

Your project amount will be calculated to the nearest thousand.

There is a sliding scale that reduces the per-word charge. Beginning at 22,000 words, the per-word charge is reduced by 0.001 and reduces by that amount again at every two thousand words. For example: A 20,000 word project will have a $800 charge. A 22,000 word project will have a $858 charge reduced from $880. A 50,000 word project will have a $1250 charge reduced from $2000.

Below are the details of this sliding scale:
