Keep an eye on your inbox next week for a transmission (aka a Backerkit survey)! This is your chance to confirm your preferred name for the official crew roster and be forever immortalized in Far Out: Space Adventure!

Project Update: Mission Log #004: Order Packing In Progress & Shipping Update
Hi everyone,
This update is long overdue — thank you for your patience.
The books are finished, and we’ve started packing this weekend with some extra help (see below). :)
Before final shipping, I’ll be confirming addresses for anyone who isn’t doing local pickup/drop-off, since it’s been a while.
To say thank you for waiting, we’ll be covering shipping costs for everyone.
I’ll follow up shortly with:
- address confirmations
- shipping timelines
- local pickup/drop-off details
For anyone curious about the delay: late spring and early summer were consumed by a major work project for my day job, and shortly after that I found out I was pregnant. It’s been a tougher pregnancy than expected, but the baby is almost here — and I’m relieved to finally be at the finish line with this project.
Thank you again for sticking with this. I can’t wait for these books to reach you.
— Melissa

Here’s where everything stands:
⏳ BOOKS: In progress
⏳ BLACKLIGHT KITS: In progress
⏳ STICKERS: In progress
✅ BOOKMARKS: Done
⏳ STICKERS: In progress
✅ BOOKMARKS: Done
✅ DIGITAL PAGES: Done

Grateful for your patience — shipping is in sight!
I’ll be requesting final shipping info soon, so keep an eye out for that in the next update. 🚀💛

Project Update: Mission Log #002: 🛠️ Production Update + Coloring Workshop! 🎨
Hey crew!
Just a quick transmission to let you know that all the items are currently in production! We’re cruising along right on schedule, and so far, everything’s looking promising from mission control.
Also—if you’re local to the Las Vegas area, we’ll be hosting our first coloring workshop at Market in the Alley this coming Saturday, March 29th at The Green! 🌿✨
Come hang out, try some fun coloring tools, and get a sneak peek at what’s coming. We’d love to see you there—space suits optional but encouraged. 👽
Over and out,
Melissa
