@gordonmacray makes a great point on how words in #uxwriting help people achieve something, while in advertising, it’s all about the words

And as @pdstafford says, the best UX writers are the ones that leave their ego behind. When you work in a product team, you have to ready to iterate and can’t “fall in love” with your words. It ain’t madmen y’all!

It’s true the market is evolving and more and more job descriptions are appearing for content related jobs in the UX field, however, companies are still struggling to differentiate marketing content from product content (episodes like this help )

I hope 2020 will be the year where job descriptions get better and companies understand what they need to get from a UX writer and stop masking copywriting roles as if writing roles

On our side as UX writers, we need to get better at helping other aspiring writers to get into the craft. We also need to help other design teams that don’t have writers understand the benefit of having one.
