In June of 2022, I published my professional autobiography, 20 Jobs, 20 Lessons – a Long, Strange Career in Marketing, from Junk Mail to Social Media.
In January of 2025, I’m publishing the audiobook version of this book, recorded by my professional voice clone created by ElevenLabs.
I can’t tell you how excited I am to put this audiobook out there, which ironically, goes a long way towards reinforcing my point about Lesson 12 in my book, “Embrace Technology Now.”
When I spent about two years or so writing this book, I never could have imagined I would be able to create a recorded version of it in only about two weeks. But thanks to advances in #AI, specifically ElevenLabs’ founding in 2022, here I am able to drop an awesome announcement like this one.
This was my holiday break project, a passion project if ever there was one, a version of my book I’m thinking more readers – er, listeners – may grab over time than the original one.
That tells you something about today’s day and age. That tells you something about one of the main threads of my book, that the times they-are-a -changin’, and that professionally, we can’t afford to take our eyes off the prize, in a word, called “progress.”
Curious what my professional voice clone sounds like? Haven’t gotten around to reading my book yet? Well, now you can listen to it, all 265 pages of it (that’s more than seven hours of listening pleasure, 7:04:54 to be exact 😊).
