Congrats! Can wait to buy and read the book! ♥️♥️♥️ (every day is a struggle to not just go “what the heck.” And just buy it without acknowledging my cheep-skate butt screaming at me not to buy stuff without thinking and also having never ordered off anything that wasn’t Amazon 😂. Also never have I been so disappointed in myself for being late to a video 😔😂)

Congrats! Its so cool seeing the process of kickstarting a book. This is the route I've long since decided to take and seeing your progress is so motivating.
But I also wonder, do you package and ship all the books yourself? How do you keep track of backers info and what the specifically ordered? I'm assuming kickstarter organize your backers info for you but I just can't wrap my head around the fulfillment aspect of this

If you are doing POD hardcover, how do you sign the books and which printer are you using?
