I preordered December of last year and didn’t get an email… did anyone say whether or not we were supposed to get one?

Thanks again for all the hard work, Jason.

But I find it sort of disturbing that people don't have a problem with the fact that copies were being sold and given away before pre-orders were shipped simply because it does not inconvenience them personally. Something is not morally right or wrong based on whether it inconveniences YOU or not. I pre-ordered , and do not mind waiting a few days.

Is that OK? Regardless, glad to hear you are back from Vegas (I hope everything went great there and you sold many copies) and excited to see the finished product at long last.

Those were two major events which I hope you achieved some good sales at. People should understand when such key opportunities come up that you'd be foolish not to take advantage of them if you could. This isn't exactly a project targetted at the average Jo. As someone featured in the documentary, I'm apparently in for a free copy of it. Though I'm as keen to get it as anyone else, I have no problem with waiting as pre-orders are filled or sales at special events are made. I won't be able to see the number of my coin but it will have a place of honour in my apartment. Visitors find very few decorative objects. Being totally blind, I find it helpful to keep clutter to a minimum. I have a rule about such items. If they're out in the apartment, they have a story attached to them. Decorations should at least serve to initiate good conversation. Participating in that documentary was part of what kept me together while my married life fell to pieces around me. Thanks once again for giving me the opportunity to reach out and participate in something worthy, lasting and larger than my own concerns. I stand ready to help in any way I'm able to with your future efforts. Congratulations are definitely in order. Those were two major events which I hope you achieved some good sales at.

I've been looking forward to this for a long time. Despite the pre-order complaints, it must feel incredibly great. Well this is awesome news. I’ve been looking forward to this for a long time.

Although… count me in as one of those guys who never received a pre-order email. Should I be worried too?

It's time to party!
