The premise was simple: a free Glimpse audiobook each month for a year, no strings, no upsell, no expanding email funnel. We wanted to know whether people would value a thing given freely, or whether free quietly meant disposable.
The answer, mostly: people listened. Some came back for the next one. A few wrote to say where the book had found them — a long drive, a hospital waiting room, a hard week. That was always the part we cared about. The Circle is staying.
