Editing Audie Awards

{{Short description|Audiobook award}}
The '''Audie Awards''' ({{IPAc-en|ˈ|ɔː|d|i}}, rhymes with "gaudy"<!--commonly mispronounced like "Audi"-->; abbreviated from ''audiobook''), or simply the '''Audies''', are awards for achievement in [[spoken word]], particularly [[audiobook]] [[narration]] and [[audiodrama]] performance, published in the United States of America. They are presented by the [[Audio Publishers Association]] (APA) annually in March.

The Audies are sometimes likened to the [[Academy Awards]] for their public recognition of merit in the audio industry.<ref>{{cite news |last=Sepuka |first=Leslie |date=April 6, 2007 |title=BBC Audiobooks America Wins at the Audies® |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/pressoffice/bbcworldwide/worldwidestories/pressreleases/2007/06_june/audiobooks_america.shtml |work=BBC Online |location= |access-date=}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |last=Martin |first=J.

==Audie Awards galas==
The Audie Awards gala is the annual awards ceremony during which most of the Audie Awards are presented. It is hosted by the Audio Publishers Association and features a guest master of ceremonies (emcee), usually a notable figure in the world of audiobook narration or a celebrity audiobook enthusiast.

{{cquote|Initially the Audies were handed out during a casual afternoon hosted by an industry insider. […] Now it's a formal evening, with cocktails beforehand and Champagne and dessert afterward.<ref>{{cite news |last=Williams |first=John |date=June 6, 2012 |title=Audie Awards Celebrate Great Voices, Not Famous Faces |url=https://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/06/06/audie-awards-celebrate-great-voices-not-famous-faces/ |work=The New York Times |location= |access-date=}}</ref>}}

The Audiobook of the Year award was not presented before 2004.
