The following Forbes article (written by Adam Rowe – link at the bottom of this page) spotlights my only rant with being an independent publisher—who is both an audiobook producer and narrator.
Thank God for companies like Author’s Republic and Findaway Voices, who are trying to set the example of how to do the right thing with regards to royalty payments, but even their hands are tied when it comes to giving authors their just due. So back to my rant… Why should any audiobook vendor (I won’t name them but if you listen to audiobooks, you know where you buy them) get a considerably larger slice of the pie than the guy who bought the ingredients, prepared and baked that delight in his own kitchen, using his own oven?

All the Best!
