Why “pay what you want”?

Because it fits the brand. Knowledge that genuinely helps you shouldn't fail at a paywall — and whoever values it gets to show that. You set the price. No minimum, no guilt trip, no fake scarcity.

Common questions

Is it really free?
Yes. You can download the PDF and ePub without payment and without signing up. Paying is voluntary — a thank-you if it did something for you.
Which format for my Kindle?
ePub. Current Kindles and the Kindle app read ePub directly; otherwise use “Send to Kindle”. On a computer or tablet, PDF is the most convenient.
Is there a printed edition?
In preparation via Amazon KDP (paperback + Kindle). Once it's live, the link appears here — the fastest way to hear about it is the newsletter.
Can I pass it on?
Sure, privately and unchanged. If it helps someone, send them the link to this page instead of the file — that way it stays current.

The book is free — so is the newsletter
