Highlights

• My book’s pre-sale succeeded (just barely).
• I wrote a bunch of blog posts, and I was bad at predicting their performance.
• Now, I need to pick a markup language for writing my book.

Goal grades

• Result: The Kickstarter reached $6,701 from 196 backers.
• Grade: A+

The Kickstarter did better than I expected, making a last-minute comeback.
