In your benevolence, the Artist appeals for A dream come true.

@merelymatt says, if you've ever been stuck at the final hurdle of a fic, or a drawing, or any artwork – so near, and yet so far – this one's for you. David absolutely nails the frustration and the yearning, the wanting it to be finished but also wanting it to be perfect, just like you imagined.

Do any audio drama folks here have experience of monetizing with Apollo? I approached through the contact form on their website, where it says they try to get back in 2-3 days; been a couple of weeks and nothing back yet. Just trying to get a sense of how worthwhile it'll be to chase them up (and whether slow responses/not delivering on what they say they'll do is normal or unusual)

The cover is muted in red-ish greys. There is a diagonal line, above which is dark, below which is light. It might be a torn paper or a shoreline. In the bottom right corner is a bloody thumbprint. Overlaid all this in the center is a vertical dagger. Overlaid on the dagger, the title "The Secret of St Kilda" is written very narrowly in red and light pinkish-grey.

Description below the cut:

@thekilda

In this supernatural thriller series, listeners will follow Lockie, a charismatic con man who escapes to St Kilda with the promise that this time he’ll change his ways. Unfortunately, the island and its unusual inhabitants have other ideas. He seeks redemption and they seek a saviour, but you know what they say - no change without sacrifice.
