David Sparks has released his latest in his Field Guide series - [Markdown ($9.99 in the iBookstore)](https://target.georiot.com/Proxy.ashx?tsid=528&GR%5FURL=https%253A%252F%252Fitunes.apple.com%252Fus%252Fbook%252Fmarkdown%252Fid622433972%253Fmt%253D11%2526uo%253D4%2526partnerId%253D30&ref=chrisenns.com). (Previous books in the Field Guide series include [Paperless](https://target.georiot.com/Proxy.ashx?tsid=528&GR%5FURL=https%253A%252F%252Fitunes.apple.com%252Fus%252Fbook%252Fpaperless%252Fid520393162%253Fmt%253D11%2526uo%253D4%2526partnerId%253D30&ref=chrisenns.com) and [60 Mountain Lion Tips](https://target.georiot.com/Proxy.ashx?tsid=528&GR%5FURL=https%253A%252F%252Fitunes.apple.com%252Fus%252Fbook%252F60-mountain-lion-tips%252Fid565956630%253Fmt%253D11%2526uo%253D4%2526partnerId%253D30&ref=chrisenns.com)).

> This book demystifies Markdown, making it easy for anybody to learn. This book includes 130 pages and 27 screencasts totaling more than one and a half hours of video. This book will take you from zero knowledge of Markdown to being a Markdown pro and change the way you write for the better.

I write in Markdown on this blog. I use it when I record notes for [podcasts I record](https://ssktn.com/?ref=chrisenns.com) and when I'm taking notes in [conversations for my day job](https://lemonproductions.ca/?ref=chrisenns.com). It's so quick to write when you work in a web/real world hybrid like I do.

There's the [version in the iBookstore](https://target.georiot.com/Proxy.ashx?tsid=528&GR%5FURL=https%253A%252F%252Fitunes.apple.com%252Fus%252Fbook%252Fmarkdown%252Fid622433972%253Fmt%253D11%2526uo%253D4%2526partnerId%253D30&ref=chrisenns.com) and there's also [a PDF version available if you're not a iOS user](https://macsparky.fetchapp.com/sell/liexohbo?ref=chrisenns.com).
