The publishing industry doesn't make things easy for us indies. Thank you for being willing to put in this little bit of extra effort to support an indie author.
After you reach the YOUR AUDIO IS READY! screen (see above image), you're going to...
Select DOWNLOAD MP3s
The audio tracks will download to your computer in a zipped file (titled Awaken the Dawn_Audiobook).
Unzip the file to extract the audio tracks
The tracks are numbered 01 to 60, so they should appear in order.
Log in to your Apple Books or Apple Music account
ADD a new COLLECTION (Apple Books) or PLAYLIST (Apple Music)
You can name the new collection or playlist whatever you want – something like Awaken the Dawn Audiobook, ATD Audio, or similar.
After you've added this new collection or playlist, you're going to import the audio tracks...
Go to FILE and then IMPORT and select all 60 tracks
The tracks will be automatically placed under AUDIOBOOKS (Apple Books) or SONGS (Apple Music)
From here, you'll just need to add the audio files/tracks to the playlist you created.
The app should order the tracks correctly since the files are numbered sequentially. IF YOU FIND THAT THEY'RE OUT OF ORDER, try sorting by ascending TITLE or DATE.
Audiobook Cover (optional)
If you'd like to set the audiobook cover as the Collection or Playlist image, I'm providing it here. THIS IS TOTALLY OPTIONAL. Some listeners want this, others don't.
Thank you so much again for supporting my work! A lot of heart went into this audiobook, and I hope you love it!
