    SUCCESS!!

    I can't believe it, but it has happened. I don't know if you've gotten emails yet from Kickstarter or seen my Facebook/Twitter posts, but the book project has been successfully funded. It is a go!

    But for now, I wanted this to be a HUGE THANK YOU for your financial support, belief in me/this project, and going out on a limb and telling your friends and family about this project. I saw so many Facebook and Twitter posts helping to hype the project. Your enthusiasm was a big encouragement through this process.

    Now I'm entering the book printing stage. The book files are being prepared for the printer as we speak. I expect it to be done in a few weeks, and I will keep you posted on when to expect to see it in the mail.

    Best,
    Mark

    You can always submit words at the site (http://rarewords.org), but I'll add it to my list. "Time Invader" sounds cool! Thanks for your pledge -- I appreciate it!
