Hello all!!
We want to be able to give you more background information about what we are doing at Tapas HQ, as well as how our work affects our creators and you!
Many creators have been able to find success on our platform, with the sales of their episodes increasing their income or even allowing them to quit their day job and become a creator full time. This has been a great focus for our team and has been an incredibly rewarding experience.
But, this isn’t all we do! As we’re growing as a platform as well as a team, we’re expanding our goals, fighting for more deals for our creators that extend to more traditional media companies and sites.
Today, I’m excited to share with you that Tapas is joining forces with Podium Audio to turn some of our novels into audiobooks.
Please take a look at the announcement here!
From the Article:
“Podium is an audio-first entertainment studio that finances, develops, produces and distributes immersive audio content. It gained international notice for turning unknown author Andy Weir’s e-book The Martian into the most successful audiobook in the world. The company has published 1,300 audiobooks and 50 of them have become bestsellers. The company has partnered with Tapas media to turn their bite-sized webcomic and fiction content into audiobooks to be sold on Audible.
The companies first joined forces on The Beginning After The End by TurtleMe, a breakout progression fantasy hit on Tapas as both a novel and comic, and now releasing its fifth book through Podium Audio, which will be available on Audible on May 27th. Season 3 of the massively popular comic will be available on Tapas on May 29th.
Podium will be producing and distributing audiobooks for popular Tapas titles including The Dragon Prince’s Bride by CJ Young, Prince of Silk and Thorn and the Dragon Generals series by Maham Fatemi, and Condemning the Heavens and Blue Phoenix by Tinalynge.”
I’m thrilled for the creators mentioned in this article as well as for our community. More wide reaching success stories mean more eyes on our platform, and with that, more eyes on your series.
Over time and with continued success, we’re looking forward to supporting as many creators as possible. I can’t wait to continue to share good news with you whenever we have something to report!
Thank you!
