As a rule of thumb, professionals tend to narrate at 120 to 140 words per minute. If it’s easier to imagine, let’s say 7000 words per hour allowing for breaks, corrections and re-records. A 35k word book/140 page novel will usually take around 5 hours to record.
You can get a professional quality ‘on site’ recording with a small amount of equipment and ‘know-how’.
So recording and editing will account for around 15 hours of our model 35k word book, provided no re-records are required
