Good news! Our computer issues are sorted* and we'll be back with a new episode of Travelling Light tomorrow! 🥳 It's a decision episode too, so get your voting hats on - this one's a fun one 😀

*I say "sorted" - it fixed itself overnight, but not before I'd taken it into the shop. A mystery.

We're still at 38% funded, so we have a few hundred still to go to halfway.
For perspective- to be able to pay our main actors for season 4, we will need to reach 84%!

Every writer who generates a slop image for their work is a class traitor.

"I can't afford a visual artist"

So your solution is stabbing artists in the back? Stealing from them?

Furthermore, slop-generated imagery suggests slop-generated writing. That's how you're presenting yourself.

We had our best ever sales numbers over on Bandcamp over the weekend, with Friday being our best ever day (thank you everyone!)

The amount we raised from sales was the equivalent of (roughly) 250,000 listens on Spotify.
