A printable companion for learning Markdown by hand — and practicing online. The desk-side book that sits next to the course.

A printed workbook for practice pages, mini-projects, answer keys, and a quick-reference cheat sheet you can keep on your desk.
Type any Markdown and watch it render instantly. Every workbook chapter points here to try the real thing. Open it →
Not a stack of blank practice pages — a proper learning book with real instruction, worked examples, projects, and answer keys.

Where the book earns its place — guided projects that turn syntax into finished, useful documents:
A tear-out quick reference — table syntax, image syntax, links, code blocks — plus a "why didn't this render?" section for the mistakes everyone makes (looking at you, tables and missing blank lines).
The printed version of the course's final exam: write a small article using every Markdown skill, then test it live on the playground. Answer keys included, so you can check your own work.
The printable Markdown Course Workbook is out now on Amazon — keep it beside the course for practice pages, mini-projects, and a quick-reference cheat sheet.
