Soundcloud has been around for a awhile. I have used it a few times to search for music for my trailers. Just in case you have never visited, let me just tell you that you can find all types of music tracks and audiobooks there. Here you may discover your next favorite artist or writer. The feature I enjoy most is being able to embed audio in a picture of my book. Click this link to see how I have made use of this feature . I did not place the picture with the embedded audio in this post because the audio is programmed to start automatically.
Interested yet? Your first step will be to convert a chapter or snippet of your book into audio format. Upload the audio to Soundcloud. If you don't have an account, now is the time to make one. It's free for three hours of uploaded audio or you can enroll in a paid monthly plan for more space. To add the audio to a picture the website will have to allow the use of html. Replace the picture's info with the embed link from Soundcloud.
If you are unable to find the correct html to replace don't fret. You can add it at the beginning or the end of a post. Click this link to see this version live.
As always, feel free to share this post with your friends.
