You’ve been selected! KDP Audiobooks with Virtual Voice Beta

Hi Friends,

I recently received an email from KDP telling me I was eligible to try out their new virtual voice audiobook creation tool while it’s in the beta phase.

Has anyone heard about this? Or tried it?

I would prefer to have a real person narrating my books, but I haven’t had the time to organize everything involved with it yet.

Based on some quick research, it looks like the Amazon beta version only allows you to sell through Audible channels, but I’m wondering if it would at least be worth experimenting with, until I find the time someday to expand to a real live human narrated audio book.

I would love to hear anyone’s thoughts about this.
