Thanks to Sandie Herron, for the past couple years, I’ve posted the list of the Audie Award winners. “The Audie Awards recognize distinction in
audiobooks and spoken word entertainment and are sponsored by the Audio
Publishers Association (APA). 2019 is the 24th year of annual
Audie Awards.” The winners were announced at the Audies Gala, March 4.
There are samples of the winners, and some of the shortlisted titles here – https://www.audiofilemagazine.com/audies/
