Audiobook Creation Exchange (ACX) is officially rolling out higher royalties for authors, but it's NOT available for everyone. Bookvault, the UK-based print on demand company, expanded print distribution into Australia. And, the Kindlepreneur Dave Chesson updated one of his pieces on keywords that every author should read. All that and more in the self-publishing news this week!
