Currently reading Lord of Light by Roger Zelazny. Most recent audiobook: UR’s Crash Course in Sound Economics (youtu.be/uZ05BYnG8Qg)

The Romanian is immunized against all dangers: one may call him a pick-pocketer, thief, scammer, mugger, it all runs off him like water off a raincoat. But call him a Turk and you will be astonished at how he recoils, how injured he is, how he suddenly shrinks back: “I’ve been found out.”

Whereas in the Patchwork recording I state that I narrate it myself.

And I've got a place in the woods that's in the trees, and sheltered by a cabin/shack of sorts, so could be decent for sound, with squirrels & birds as background.

One thing I want to try however is setting up several mics at different locations, then use the DUET algorithm to separate my voice from noise sources using the time delay/power differences between the different microphones.

But at the same time people will want a more personal connection. So maybe audiobooks that are a video recording of someone (me) sitting somewhere scenic (the woods) reading a book completely through would have a demand.
