New: 100-Word Writing Habit Kindle (or ePub + PDF)

January 23, 2025

By popular demand, 100-Word Writing Habit is now available as an Amazon Kindle edition (or ePub + PDF through my store). It’s also available on other ebook retailers.

Great pains have been taken to make the reading experience as much as possible like the paperback edition.

I’m offering a special launch discount for this on my Shopify store. If you buy from my store, you can download both ePub and PDF versions onto the device of your choice, and keep it forever. For a limited time, if you buy with the coupon HWHePub, you’ll get 30% off, which will match the price of the Kindle edition (which you merely “rent” from Amazon).
