00:02:00 Brooke Chapman has been doing auditions, got shortlisted for a gig, received an audiobook offer
00:03:54 Carrie mentioned that the deal with audiobooks is if it is a royalty sharebook, and it's not going to sell very much, and if it's super long, then it can end up being something not worth it. So Carrie wanted to poll the group and ask what are the ways to vet a book? Like if you got an offer on ACX, how would you go about deciding if, like, especially if it's a new author, how would you go about deciding whether or not to do that audiobook?
