Well, to get USB OTG, probably the easiest way would be to obtain the kernel sources from Amazon (as per GPL2 license) and rebuild it by enabling the USB host drivers. And/or the Bluetooth HID drivers.
While I already used custom kernels on other devices, I'm not really keen on testing them on the Kindle. A bad move, and it's bricked; not possible to switch the SD card for a new system (as on a Raspberry Pi). Replacing it would almost cost the $100.
If you want an e-ink tablet for serious writing/note-taking, probably a Remarkable 2 with keyboard folio is a much better adapted solution. (that's what I'm also thinking of getting)
