I started to post video versions of my audiobook sections on to YouTube. They feature video text and a live video of me reading. I'll always wait till the Librivox audiobook is completed so that I can link to Librivox from YouTube.
A Poem from "Rampolli by George MacDonald":
The Words of Faith: From Schiller

I hope that this can be positive advertisement for Librivox since YouTube viewers will have to go to Librivox for the rest of the content. On YouTube, I only expect to get 25 viewers per video. I didn't leave out a "K". I mean less that one hundred. So I've been trying to post my content on to the, "Poetry First," Facebook group, Reddit's, "r/poetryreading," subreddit, and here on the Librivox forum for more views. Let me know of any advice you have if you can think of anywhere else I can share my content; or if you could share my content where appropriate, I would appreciate it a lot.
I am still buzzing off the excitement from participating in my first group project that is published to a place as official as Librivox. I hope to continue to make and distribute this sort of content.
Any feedback?
I Posted My Reading On YouTube Live With Video Text
I post video text versions with me reading live in the video at https://www.youtube.com/@AaronCZim
Of course, I also link back to the specific LibriVox.org pages to build momentum.

This is excellent. Although when I opened it, I already had an idea in my head as to what it might be like which was way different to how it turned out.
This is quite an interesting video, because you are trying to maintain a constant tone and speed, like a robot, while A.I. readers are trying to imitate humans as best they can, so there's some irony there, as though humans want to be more like robots and robots want to be more like humans. I prefer your reading to A.I. though. It's excellent.

Oooh! What a fun idea!
More than looking good, we're looking STUNNING
That is really great! I always like the video element too. Hope you continue to do more.
I was thinking of starting a thread inviting folks to post their "voxer vids" but I think there are so few that make them, it probably wouldn't catch on.
Cheers!

I have a "LibriVox Community" section at the bottom with links to Librivox members YouTube channels. I only have Phil there now, do you want me to add your channel too?

I did a few during Covid lockdown, although not live. Even the short ones were a lot of work, and I haven't done any since. Here's an example:
