I Need Your Help!


I have decided to take a month and see what I can do about getting and audiobook put together. Please note, the cover art you see here is not the official cover for the audiobook, it's just a placeholder at the moment.

I want to see if I can produce the audiobook myself with Dianne narrating. I have been looking into it today and I think it's doable. Dianne has experience in broadcast news and a bit of acting so I think she can do the performance, I just need to be able to do the post production.

I have been going through different websites to find music for the audiobook edition of Into the West: The Orphan Train. P.R. and I have found a few music tracks we like on Envanto Market's Audio Jungle. I would like your opinions on the ones we like.

If you have Into the West: The Orphan Train, you know it is not a straight western but more of a historical fiction in era of the Wild West. As the serial progresses, it will get closer to more of a traditional western as the characters get settled in the Kansas territory. These things are important to express the feeling of the storyline.

We wanted something that had a repetitive train "chugging" sound to the music, at least in the background. I like the ones we have found. I will post samples on my Facebook page. For some reason I cannot get them to load here. Please give the samples a listen and vote on which one you think we should purchase.

If you need music for your own projects, please check out the Audio Jungle site. They have a wonderful collection of music.

Thanks for following me crazy journey. It is always better when you travel with life's trails with good friends!

Stephen
