Welcome to the Storyteller's Guild
Some adventures are best told with a fellowship.
Bringing a story to life takes more than a single voice.
The Storyteller's Guild is a creative partnership between author and developmental editor Colleen Ochab and audiobook narrator and audio engineer Elizabeth Sample. Together, we help authors shape their stories on the page and bring them to life through immersive audio.
Whether you're preparing your manuscript for publication, developing characters and plotlines, or transforming your finished novel into an audiobook, we're here to support your journey from first draft to final chapter.

Benefits
Get to Know Us
Two storytellers. One shared vision.
When you work with both members of the Storyteller's Guild, you get more than two separate services. Your developmental editor and audiobook producer can work together to help carry your story from manuscript to finished audiobook.
15% Off Your First Audiobook
Receive 15% off your first audiobook production project through the Storyteller's Guild.
Priority Scheduling
Guild projects receive priority consideration when scheduling audiobook production, helping keep your editorial and audio timelines connected.
Character & Pronunciation Guide
We'll create a practical reference for character names, pronunciations, terminology, and important story details to help maintain consistency throughout your audiobook.
Complimentary 5-Minute Promo
Receive one professionally edited and mastered promotional audiobook sample, up to 5 minutes, ready to share with your audience.
Collaborative Creative Support
With both your editor and audio producer involved, we can help connect your manuscript, characters, tone, and audiobook performance so the finished production stays true to your vision.
A Smoother Path from Page to Performance
Instead of navigating the transition from manuscript to audiobook alone, you'll have two storytellers working within their specialties and communicating toward the same creative goal.
The Storyteller's Guild is a collaborative service offering between Colleen H. Ochab, developmental editor, and Elizabeth, audiobook narrator & audio engineer. Each professional independently provides their respective services under their own agreements and pricing.
