I'm more often found outdoors than in. An avid lover of pine-scented air and sunshine, I call Colorado home and enjoy all the beautiful scenery it has to offer.
UX Writing
Completing the 14-day UX writing challenge
scroll
Method
With the goal of creating more than just copy for each challenge, I came up with a seven-step process to follow each day. I leaned on my experience as an English teacher to come up with multiple drafts for each prompt; and I allowed my affinity for research to help me craft the best content.
1. Receive Daily UX Writing Challenge email
2. Read prompt
3. Read related content
4. Brainstorm
5. Draft
6. Select final version
7. Design the user interface (UI) for final version
But wait!
Every designer knows that there's more to creating than just the UI... so in order to further improve my craft, I read as much as possible about UX writing, both online and in published texts.
My top three recommendations:
-
Letting Go of the Words by Ginny Redish
-
Strategic Writing for UX by Torrey Podmajersky
