I'm giving away 100 notebooks + all my digital versions with the hardcover
Hey all,
On Monday or Tuesday, we’ll be receiving the notebooks so the team I’m working with at Otterpine can immediately start shipping the hardcover bundles people have ordered.
I decided it would also be fun to gift some of the notebooks for Black Friday. The only thing you need to do is pay shipping (US Only).
You can grab one here (discount automatically applies at checkout).
One issue: We can only do this in the US right now. We still have some work to do to set these up for international shipping.
Also, I’m including all the digital editions of my books if you buy the premium hardcover
In addition to a free notebook and note cards, which are already included, if you purchase the launch bundle before Christmas, I’ll throw in digital versions of both of my books:
PDF, EPUB, and Kindle Versions of The Pathless Path
Audible code (while they last) and/or Podcast link to The Pathless Path Audiobook
PDF, EPUB, and Kindle Versions of Good Work
Spotify Gift code for Good Work (while it lasts) and/or Podcast link to the Audiobook
And the PDF of the premium version itself.
I need to set this up on the backend but if you just email me your receipt this weekend, I’ll hook you up (also obviously good for previous purchases too).
Why am I doing this?
Bundles: The thinking behind a higher-priced book is that it helps reach the people who want all this stuff. Price discrimination: either you might want to support my journey, or you are just the kind of reader who buys 5 different versions of a book anyway.
Giving Stuff Away: It’s fun, and it’s always been part of how I do things. I started experimenting with alternative gift economy approaches in 2018.
Why Not?: I’ve been trying to lean much more into “what is the most generous thing I can do?” and “what is the most fun thing to do here?” Expect many more experiments along these lines in the future (and ideas welcome!).
21 “Pathless” Book Recommendations
I recently updated my “recommended reads” site for people on unconventional paths:
That’s all for this week. I’m likely going to be dropping a few longer essays I’ve been working on for the holidays. Stay tuned!

Generous (and smart) to give away Good Work with this bundle.
For the Pathless Path ebook, is it possible to do something like: "buy the premium edition and you can GIFT 3 ebooks to friends?" I'm not sure how that'd even work, but reasoning is someone has the premium edition, they don't also need the ebook.
Thank you, Paul...
I'm a journaler with both my fountain pens in Baron Fig Confidante journals and on 750words.com. That said, I am always open to the new. I've read your thoughts and found some resonance. While free-association journaling is always enlightening--who knows what this path(less) trip will reveal.
Again, thank you for your generosity.
Bill...
