My Book's Pre-Sale Just Barely Succeeded

For the past few months, I’ve been working on a book called Refactoring English: Effective Writing for Software Developers.

I didn’t want to spend a year writing the book only to find out that nobody wanted to buy it, so at the beginning of March, I ran a one-month pre-sale on Kickstarter. I structured the project so that if I didn’t hit $5k in pre-orders, the project would be canceled, and I’d walk away with nothing.
