+# Audiobook Maker 1.0
+
+The first version of the infamous Audiobook Maker - one of my first projects.
+The Audiobook Maker takes a folder of MP3 files as well as some metadata and
+creates a .POD file from those. The .POD file can then be processed by the
+Slideshow Assembler in order to generate a mp4 audiobook.
