Audiobooks!
Those of you who have been following me here know that I've had a slow but ongoing program to get more of my stories into audio format. The main reason is because a fair number of people really like audio books.
They're great for those with commutes, or who want the distraction of stories while gardening or doing housework or other mundane tasks. They're also a real boon for those with vision problems. (My mother listened to a lot of audiobooks from the National Library of the Blind in her later years.)
Audio Page:
A new step in my program is creating an audio page on my website so those who are interested can find all of my available audio editions listed in one place. The page been a complicated project, and it's a work in progress. New works and links and samples will be added as they become available.
I'm fortunate in that all of my books released in the last twenty years have had excellent audio versions produced by the publishers, a tradition that my current
publisher, Kensington, is continuing. All are still available, and most, though not all, have been produced by Recorded Books.
But any books done before The Wild Child were not available in audio, so I've been slowly working to produce audio editions of my backlist. I've now done ten independent productions; I was particularly pleased last year when the seventh and last of my Fallen Angels Series became available.
Producing my own backlist audio has gone slowly because it's expensive and time consuming for a variety of reasons, but progress is being made. I love working with my English narrator, Siobhan Waring, and we have a verbal agreement for recording the three books in my Silk Trilogy in 2020. (She is in demand, so advance scheduling is necessary.)
I also decided to do audio versions of some novellas. Cheaper to produce because they're shorter, so cheaper to sell. Win/win! The first of those, The Christmas Cuckoo, came out before this past Christmas and has been much enjoyed.
My second audio novella is The Black Beast of Belleterre, a Beauty 
and the Beast Christmas story, one of the most popular I've written. I started with an e-book version which has done well. The audio version has been recorded for a couple of months, but projects take a long time to go through the vetting and uploading process at Amazon and Audible.com.
Other platforms work more quickly. If you want to hear The Black Beast now, it's available directly from the distributor, Findaway Voices. You'll need to download their Authors Direct app, but that's a simple business. It's also available at Kobo and Apple Books Audio.
Worldwide?
In other audio news, I've been trying to expand the distribution territories for some of my older books that had limited availability. One audio publisher has already agreed to expand distribution for the book of mine they produced, though it will probably take time to go live so I won’t mention it here. I hope more audiobooks will become more widely available in the upcoming months.
If you're one of the audiobook lovers here, have patience! I'm doing my best to make more stories more available worldwide!

I have long been a fan of audio books. I had to do some long distance driving and listening to a story made the truss go snitcher and U was less kujeky ti did if.
You can unagube my hirer when U went ti lease my next car ub 2018 and discovered the car manufacturer had removed the cassette player fein the car, U trued trabsferubfg sine i n CDs ti an iPod, but with a singular lack of success.
I’m afraid I just haven’t kept up with the new technology. It’s very disappointing.

I applaud your actions and your progress. I am not a fan of audio books (my problem is hearing not eyesight) but my daughter is. I know that she enjoys her audio books both while driving and while working around her single occupant house.
So more power to you! and keep up the good work!

I love your audiobooks and really appreciate that you are doing them! I have been revisiting old favorites that way. They are my favorite way to unwind my brain if I’m having trouble falling asleep.
I keep hoping The Black Beast of Belterre will pop up on Audible soon. I have a $5 credit there that I plan to use on it as soon as it does! Also hoping to see The China Bride there someday. I bought a copy of it on CD, but I haven’t listened to it yet because the downloadable ones are so convenient all together in the Audible app. But I’m down to my last book of yours in Audible, so I may have to break out those CDs soon. 🙂

Lucy, the biggest reason for me not trading in my 2012 is because it has a 6 CD player and none of the newer cars do. I like my old tech!

Thanks, Sue! I know not everyone cares about audiobooks one way or the other, but a lot of people do, so I’ll keep doing them.

I still love the paper books. But as I get older and my vision is getting worse I may yet become a fan of audio books. I have not given them much of a chance yet. So please do keep on with this project as I may want them in the future.

Susanna, I’m sure the Black Beast will eventually turn up on Audible–they’ve had it long enough. I hadn’t realized that The China Bride wasn’t available in an downloadable form. I can’t think why not–it’s the middle book of the Bride Trilogy and the other books are available. I’ll look into it with Recorded Books. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

I fell in love with audiobooks when I heard my first Cutting For Stone. It was narrated by my son, Sunil Malhotra. He did all the characters, and there were many. I have since been a fan of audiobooks and get them whenever I can afford too. Looking forward to your wonderful stories in audio.

I’ve really enjoyed Siobhan Waring’s narration and hope she’ll do many more! Can’t wait for the Silk trilogy. After TRatR, and Sunshine for Christmas, Silk and Secrets is my favourite book of yours :))) So, can I put an urgent wish in for Sunshine for Christmas and Dearly Beloved please?

There is a strong Biblical feel to the UK at present. We’ve had the flood and now the plague (aka virus) is upon us …. thank heavens for audio books to lighten the gloom.
I’m a huge fan and usually listen to at least one each week. As always I hope that more by my favorite authors will become available in the UK.
Last week I was quite excited to see that Lisa Kleypas had 18 audio books on Audible UK until I found that they were all in Danish or Italian. triple GRRRRR!!
I applaud your efforts in this area Mary Jo. 😊

Quantum, the books might be listed by their titles: The Wild Child, The China Bride, and the Bartered Bride. I never saw contracts on any of these subrights deals, which were between the publisher (Ballantine) and the producers (Recorded Books), so I have not legal standing, but I do have my agents asking Ballantine if they’ll authorize worldwide distribution. Haven’t a clue if they will–it’s a very minor matter to them, concerning books where I’ve gotten the print rights back years ago. But–Trying!

GrowlyCub, I sold publication rights to Dearly Beloved to Kensington, and I was told a couple of months back that the audio subrights had been contracted, I think to Recorded Books. I don’t believe that been produced yet, but hopefully, and audio version is on the way.

Quantum–add fire to the flood and plagues and we could bring in Australia. Sorry you were disappointed by; all those Lisa Kleypas books in the wrong languages!
I figure since so many of my books have been done in English in audio, where’s the harm in making them available all over? I hope the various producers of these books agree with me. *G*

I love your audiobooks! I bounce between them and print books. Now doing a re-listen to the Lost Lords series. First time I have listened to them one after another without a time gap between. I noticed that Kirkland’s accent changes a lot from book to book with different narrators. What does his accent sound like to you??

I adore audio books. I think it’s a throwback to the time we sat around the fire listening to the shaman tell us a story. However, I can no longer listen while I’m driving (which I used to do all the time). It’s too distracting – alas. But when I need to get on my exercise bike they’re a blessing!!!

Susannah, Stolen Magic and A Distant Magic were both published by the Del Rey SFF imprint under the name M. J. Putney. The idea was to indicate that they were by me, but different from my usual. My plan as I reissue these paranormals is to say that they by Mary Jo Putney WRITING AS M. J. PUTNEY. So both names will be there.

Dar, in my mind he has very educated British accent in a voice that is low and very nice to listen to. But different narrators are going to be all over the map. Not something I have any control over.

Joan, maybe it’s story telling by the fire, or that fact that we writers tend to be addicted to stories. *G* But you’re right, listening in the are could be hazardous to our attention! Much safer to listen on one’s exercise bike.

Great suggestions, as always. I just downloaded a couple. I’m also rereading comfort reads from my keeper shelves. Just finished Jo B.’s Malloran series.

He did a fabulous job, Kantu. That was by no means my first audiobook, but he did such a spectacular job with Cutting for Stone that I can still hear his voice when I think of that beautiful book. Please pass on my appreciation!

I’m not a fan of audio for novels; I enjoy poetry and Inspirational books and the bible on audio, but I’m not able to visualize the characters, in my mind and when they are on audio; I don’t feel their personality as well and the story doesn’t resonate with me as much! I am also unable to process the storyline as well and I fall asleep!
