As a new and developing UX writer, this book is quickly becoming my holy text for breaking into the field and working on projects. What a resource! Smart, straightforward, and immensely helpful. Highly recommend for folks doing UX writing or content design of any kind.

By far the best book for my day to day work as a UX writer at Microsoft. It helps that the author has experience working for Microsoft. However, she brings a broad perspective beyond more than one role at Microsoft.
What I love most about this book is that the author provides relevant examples across industries. It's short enough to read the whole book. It's comprehensive enough to provide guidance for a large set of people in this emerging field.
Highly recommended to anyone in a technical field who writes a lot. Even if you don't work as a UX writer, you may have the chance to provide input. Or, you may want to learn about this role that is a very interesting part of the software design process.
