Spotify is expanding its audiobook offerings with a new publishing program that allows authors to submit stories for audiobook production. Selected works will be produced and distributed by Spotify, which will compensate authors with advances and royalties. The program targets genres such as romance, mystery, and sci-fi/fantasy, while also encouraging cross-genre submissions. This initiative positions Spotify to more effectively compete with Audible. The program aligns with Spotify's history in the audiobook space, as observed by its previous expansion efforts since acquiring Findaway in 2021.
Spotify's new publishing program invites authors to submit short-form stories for audiobook production, offering advances and royalties, thus expanding its audiobook market presence.
Seeking creative works in romance, thriller, and sci-fi/fantasy genres, Spotify encourages unique cross-genre submissions, enhancing its catalog and competing with Audible's offerings.
