Serialized audio rights aren't anything anybody wants to buy so it never jeopardized any of the rights that might be for sale later. I've spent three years, produced over 100 episodes across seven novels, written over 800,000 words, had over one million downloads, and today I signed a publishing contract to get my books in print. I already have almost 10,000 people who know my work and will be interested in buying my book when it comes out. Not all of them will, of course, but even 20% of them would be a significant number for a "new author" in an indie house. When you're thinking about building an audience, don't be afraid to define audience in ways that you might not ordinarily think of. I recorded my novel and put it up as a free podcast.
