Free download now available

The manual Write Good or Die is now available for free download in numerous electronic platforms at http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/13037. It is also available through Amazon (at 99 cents) and Scribd, coming soon to Mobipocket, Nook, and iPad, and as a PDF through numerous sites, with a print-on-demand version through Amazon and other retail outlets on the way.

And as it rapidly got downloaded this morning, it took all of an hour for someone to post a review and observe that the correct grammatical usage is "write well." I knew that was coming! But sometimes you have to break the rules, or go around the crowd, or follow unconventional advice. All I know is our contributors have sold millions of books, been on best-seller lists all over the world, and are having a lot of fun being successful. Hopefully you'll get something out of it. Please feel free to spread the book around.

  1. I just got a Sony Reader, and this was among the first books I downloaded. I'm anxious to get started reading it. You have so many great writers contributing to it that I'm sure it'll be an informative and entertaining read.

  4. Oh, and I read it on my phone. I used FBReader on my Motorola Droid. It worked well with the Smashwords version.

  5. I am about halfway through this. I downloaded this on my iPad. The content is great, and I love how often you switch up the contributing authors. It keeps things fresh. I hope to finish this sometime this month; trying to put a bigger focus on reading... of course, I buy more books than I actually read. I wonder if there is a way to force myself to read more than I write?

    Thanks again for offering this as a free download.
