Hey Everyone,

It‘s Travis here, the producer, editor, and sound designer, of VAST Horzon. As some of you are aware, Kaitlin and I recently moved 4,000 miles from the US to Germany, and as a result of the efforts required to successfully make such a move, we‘ve needed a little bit of extra time to get everything we need to accomplish done. I‘ve been working from roughly 9am till ten or 11 at night every day, weekends included, with intermittent breaks throughout the day, but in addition to VAST, Kaitlin and I are creating The White Vault: Avrum, The White Vault Season 5, and Dark Dice. While I am absolutely committed to doing everything within my power to get the work done on time, for the last two episodes, aka the last month, I‘ve been a bit underwater playing catchup.

I hope to have the next episode of VAST Horizon in your earbuds by next week and sincerely appreciate your patience. For additional information on our move, the transition process, and to listen to some of the other shows we‘re making, you can find a link to our Patreon page in the show notes. The updates and some of the behind the scenes posts are freely available, and it should give you a bit more of a detailed perspective on just how much work goes into producing a single episode.

Thank you so much again for your patience.

We look forward to sharing new people, new life, and new worlds with you soon.

-Travis
