This flexible textbook provides an integrated approach to User Experience (UX) writing and equips students and practitioners with the essential principles and methods to succeed in writing for user experience.

The fundamental goal of UX writing is to produce usable and attractive content that boosts user engagement and business growth. This book teaches writers how to create content that helps users perform desired tasks while serving business needs. It is informed by user-centered design, content strategy, artificial intelligence and digital marketing communication methodologies, along with UX-related practices. By combining writing-as-design and design-as-writing, the book breaks new ground for technical communication education where UX design and writing share common missions to achieve effective and desirable outcomes.

Outlining the key principles and theories for writing user-centered content design, this core textbook is fundamental reading for students and early career practitioners in UX, technical communication, digital marketing, and other areas of professional writing.

Industry Reviews

"If you have a background in writing, this is the book you need to add the UX theory and techniques, as well as the specific types of writing UX writers do. You'll enjoy the many examples, snapshots of UX writers on the job, and the practical exercises."

Janice (Ginny) Redish, author of Letting Go of the Words - Writing Web Content that Works.

"This book is a must read. The authors articulate through robust professional spotlights, examples, and research the underlying principles and essential phases of the content design process and offer readers actionable guidance for engaging in UX writing work and for building a UX writing portfolio."

Rebekka Andersen, University of California Davis, USA.

"This book is a necessary part of the future of the field. It is complete and comprehensive without being overwhelming. Each chapter is a sensible approach to learning. The organization of each chapter is presented in this way by design, perhaps, as its own lesson in UX writing."

Tracy Bridgeford, University of Nebraska Omaha, USA.
