Why not a series of blog posts?
To me, the reader, what value does sharing my email or it being in The incredibly less flexible "ebook" format have?

- _lqaf 4y ago> Why not a series of blog posts? It seems pretty self-evident that they wish to exchange something of value for something else of value. This is a pretty common activity among humans. Unfortunately, as we see here, "instead, why don't you do even more work to change it to my specifications and then give it to me for free" is a common counteroffer.

- tpetry 4y agoI am already writing every tip as a blog post. But those blog posts take a full day to write as they are much more detailled compared to the short summary in the ebook. My time is limited like yours, and the short ebook is the best way to spread the knowledge: You get the information now, and I'll notify you when those full articles are written.
