Authors do better when audio rights are valued separately
Leading authors in all genres are enjoying superior sales by working with a publisher dedicated to spoken audio. Print publishers often try to bundle the print and audiobook rights, which typically results in undervalued audio rights.
The data shows that authors do better when they let publishers compete for print and audio rights independently.
