Many of you are familiar with my e-book, ‘User’s Guide to Suboxone,’ that has been available for sale on the web. The copy that is sold through that site is ‘print-protected’ and copy protected; a password is required to open the document and it cannot be printed– at least not without a bit of digital trickery.
I was just looking through the book, and realized that it ain’t that bad– I’m no Hemingway, but I think that it contains some good ideas, and the words are spelled correctly. The chapters are listed at the end of this post.
I plan to upgrade ‘the forum’ in the near future, and part of that process includes raising money for a web designer. My friend Jim will always be the ‘right-hand guy’ with the programming, but I can only ask for so much free help before feeling guilty! So if anyone out there has considered making a donation, now is the time…. because a $5 donation will get you a copy of the e-book, User’s Guide to Suboxone, sent as an e-mail attachment that unlike prior forms can be printed. I do ask that you respect the copyright, and if you want a dozen copies for your treatment center, send me a note to work out a discount– rather than simply making 11 copies.
Instead of automating things this time around, if you want a copy of the printable e-book I’ll have you use the donation button on the right side of this web site. Just make a donation of $5 or more, and I will use the e-mail address that you use for the PayPal or Google Checkout donation to send the book as an attachment. I’ll get it out within a day or two. Proceeds will go to the new SuboxForum– the more I raise, the nicer I hope to make it! As always, thank you all for your support.
