Audio Literature is dedicated to providing listeners with audio programs of the highest quality, in terms of the titles selected, the narrators chosen, and the studio productions. Audio Literature titles have received industry awards and Grammy nominations (Spoken Word category) continuously during the Company’s twenty-year history.
Our primary editorial focus is on self-help, health and nutrition, and religion and spirituality. Each title, whether abridged or unabridged, is a word-for-word rendering of all or part of the contents of the book being recorded.
A very simple rule guides our decisions about which books to record. If we judge a book to be of lasting value in one of the above categories, and of considerable potential interest to readers and listeners, then we will bid on recording rights.
The decision whether to publish an audiobook in abridged or unabridged format is made according to the nature of the book being recorded. If the text contains sections which lose their impact by being read aloud, or sections which are an 'aside' from the main message of the book, we will often delete such sections, thereby providing the listener with an affordable audiobook and no loss of the author's intentions.

Lynn Grabhorn says that what molds every moment of every day of one's life are feelings. Using a candid, witty approach, she shows how feelings-- not positive thinking, or sweat and strain, or good or bad luck, or even smarts-- set the tone for people's lives. She frames her theory as a four-part plan that covers money, relationships, health and spirituality, without being pompous or preachy.
