Question for moderators: digitally narrated audiobook sample

[Augustine]

Hello SFFWorld moderators,

Before posting in the Promotion Zone, may I check whether you permit a clearly labelled audiobook sample narrated with an AI/digital voice?

I’m Augustine Steele, author of The Fall of Nibiru, a science-fiction novel about an advanced civilization confronting a threat to its world. The audiobook uses Oliver (digital voice). I would like to share one free eight-minute excerpt, clearly identified as a sample of a paid audiobook, with its store details in the Promotion Zone only.

I saw the earlier staff guidance concerning an AI-generated sci-fi video, but I do not want to assume that it covers audiobook narration. Please let me know whether this is suitable and whether any additional labelling is required.

Thank you,
Augustine Steele

Thank you for checking, Augustine: we appreciate it!

It's a complicated business, as you no doubt know: I'll ask the people who matters here and we'll get back to you as soon as we can.
