WHAT’S INSIDE ✍️

Issue #224 (Feb 22nd, 2023)

  • Teaching designers to write

  • It’s OK to fail

  • Discord’s happy little trees

  • Work with UX writing students

ARTICLES 🗞

🧑‍🏫 In a perfect world, dedicated writers would be solely responsible for every word in a digital product—dotting every I, crossing every T. But you may have noticed, we are in no such world. 

This article makes the case for why it’s OK to let your designers handle some copy if necessary and how to help them find their inner UX writer. 

Teaching UX Writing to Designers

🤦 If you’re new to the field or looking to break into it, you may think to yourself, “But what if I fail?” Rest assured, that’s all part of the process. 

Failing Into Tech and Content Design

📋 If you’re not familiar with Gerry McGovern’s Top Tasks method, you should be. This fresh take on it has something for every member of the team.

Discord knows its target audience. Young, tech fluent, with gamer vibes. So it doesn’t shy away from injecting fun into the UI. E.g. this confirmation pop-up.

Other variants include: Bake a cake, Have an existential crisis, Record a new mixtape, and more. Obviously, this wouldn’t work for most brands. But Discord’s interface builds a rapport with its users that allows for it.
