Before you begin

Use writing and voice recordings you own or have permission to use. The publishing tools require authorized access. Sign in with an approved account; contact TCBSW if you need access. Narration needs the connected Windows voice engine; entering this portal does not start a recording or generate audio.

Exporting a book does not automatically publish it or guarantee acceptance by a retailer. Review the destination’s requirements before submitting.
