My book has been published!
Over the past six to nine months I’ve been working on a book - Mastering Vim. Mastering Vim is a passion project which is meant to take the reader (you) from zero to a hero (future you): from knowing nothing about Vim, to becoming a power user. I cover many of Vim’s mysterious commands, philosophy behind the beloved editor, configuration tips, a plethora of community created plugins, as well as creating your own plugins.
Mastering Vim was written with support from Packt Publishing and was kindly reviewed by Bram Moolenaar (website) - the creator of Vim. Many people made this book possible, including VimConf Japan crew, who kindly hosted me earlier this year. Thank you to everyone for making Mastering Vim happen!
Give it a read and let me know what you think, Mastering Vim is available on Amazon!
P.S: This post, like many others, is written in Vim.

Just finished vimtutor and found a link to your book at the end of it. Was surprised to learn that you literally published it just 5 days ago! Will be getting on it asap.
Hey I didn't realize it's linked there, that's really exciting! What Vim version/platform?
I'll be happy to hear your thoughts about the book if you pick it up!
Well this is embarrassing - after double checking I realized that I've downloaded a different Vim book (yours) haha! But it's too late to switch, since I've already conquered the first chapter. I'll let you know how much a typical vim beginner (me) can get through.
