Hello! I joined ACX some time ago and read one book on a royalty basis. It was fun, but editing and producing the audio took a lot of time. I didn't make any money on the book, which was not surprising—it was really a vanity project for a 1st time author. I stopped after reading an article that suggested that a really good reader and fast editor can expect to make $25/hour, which is too low of an hourly rate to make it worthwhile for me. Do you concur with this hourly rate expectation? Thanks!
