Which one sounds better?
- I wish he doesn't write me anymore, I'm tired of him
- I wish he didn't write me anymore, I'm tired of him
- I wish he wouldn't write me anymore, I'm tired of him
- I wish he won't write me anymore, I'm tired of him.
The correct one is number 3 but there are some spelling and grammar differences between American English and British English.
American English: I wish he wouldn't write me anymore. I'm tired of him.
British English: I wish he wouldn't write to me any more. I'm tired of him.
American: to write somebody
British: to write to somebody
American: anymore
British: any more

None are correct. You could say:
- I wish he wouldn't write me anymore; I'm tired of him
Note the use of a semi-colon.
Alternatively, you could follow what Kerry said, using a period between two sentences instead of a semi-colon.

It is common in American English to say 'write me'. However, in British English 'write to me' is more common.
