amazing content! Tysm❤
Glad you found it helpful
I just finished reading Microcopy: The Complete Guide and loved it. It made me completely fall in love with ux writing.
I'm unable to get the book because of my location I will be glad if you can help me.
It's also available on Kobo worldwide: www.kobo.com/ww/en/ebook/ux-writing-for-beginners
@@UXHeWrote Thank you very much I've assessed it.
Thanks a lot! Inspring, clear and genuinely video... I've a question: how variegated the UW case studies in my portfolio should be? I have experience only in website contents creation.
When I do portfolio reviews the advice I give people is to ensure they vary in terms of what skills, approaches, or techniques you used. It doesn't matter if they're all for web content, but each project should show something different you did in the process (not just different words).
This was the best dive into UX writing I came across! Grateful to have landed here😍👌
Lol'ed at if the best part of customer experience is post purchase then that online retail is doing something wrong.
Thank you for your realm of knowledge. Your videos are really helpful and encouraging to me as a non-native speaker new to content design ❤
FYI: All of the crypto doas and organization need translators. They are usually done by community members and volunteers.

Can one become a UX writer without a degree.. or should i start off some place else.
I don't see why not. A lot of companies will still require a degree, I guess. But if you can put together a portfolio, maybe take some online courses, and show to employers you can do the job, then I don't see why not.
Received a job offer for a UX Writing job, and I have been a Copy Editor/Copy Writer for one of the big 5 tech companies (that I don't feel comfortable naming) thanks for this overview! Helped me slightly prep for a interview or questions.
That's great to hear!
Amazing content
Useful, thanks.
Hi Andy, greetings from Indonesia! I’m so excited about your new book on Kindle. Unfortunately, it isn’t available in my home country, and I'd love to grab a copy. Any chance of making it accessible here? Thanks!
Hi! Yes, for those areas not covered by Amazon, I also put it on the Kobo worldwide site for free: www.kobo.com/ww/en/ebook/ux-writing-for-beginners
I've contacted you via email and your website. I'm looking for a portfolio review but have not recieved any response depite emailing multiple times. Please help, I'd love to work with you!
Emailed you, sorry! I was on holiday
I really enojoyed your video! You kept it simple, realistic and entertaining
Glad you liked it!
Great video mate.
Thanks 👍
Thank you :)

thank youuuuuu :)
I've got my own, happy to read it in near future :) thank you :) greeting from Poland. :)

thank u :)
I just got intern opportunity as junior UX writer in a healthcare multinational company. Your vid is my first guide. Thank you.
That's great! 👍
Hi Andy, I'm a subscriber from Nigeria been trying to get your book on Amazon but it keeps saying This title is not currently available for purchase. please what do I do? Thanks
You can also get it on the Kobo website for free: www.kobo.com/ww/en/ebook/ux-writing-for-beginners If it still doesn't work, let me know and I'll send it you 😄
@@UXHeWrotePlease, it still doesn't work on Kobo😢
Thank you :)
Don't forget to get my free book as well! UX Writing for Beginners
Thanks a lot for you work! Your videos are just insanely helpful and encouraging
Thank you for this, your videos are great! I'm hesitant still about how to build my portfolio, but your videos help a bunch.
Good luck! These are the 3 biggest problems I see when I do portfolio reviews. So if you can address these, you'll be alright.
Bro is there any institutions for teaching ux writers sepertely everyone tells a out ux designing in my area?
Also, how do I better justify my decisions that relate to UX laws/principles to bosses/managers who have not much knowledge about UX/Design and are convinced that what I'm trying to tell them doesn't make sense to them?
You need to know how to translate UX metrics into business metrics. A lot of bosses don't care about usability unless it costs them money. I'll make a video about that too. It's a good question.
This is great stuff, Andy. You should be a lot more famous.
@@TheSuzanneo Haha!
Another excellent video! This is a good reminder to justify the choices I make in my portfolio and try and relate them to UX laws/ UX principles of writing! Thank you sir!
Thank you! I love your book, great sources and information. Can you do a video on what technologies UX writers tend to use? I know about Figma. Also the terms most frequently used in UX writing? Thanks
Great suggestions! I was honestly thinking of doing a series on tech and design terms UX writers need to know.
And thank you so much for the book. ❤
Also, do you review resumes?
Hey! I actually just made a video where I mention that I offer portfolio critiques: ruclips.net/video/iVHANW1Rpow/видео.html If you head to uxhewrote.com/critiques and contact me we can set something up for a resume as well. 😀
Resume tips would be great, if you haven't done one already.
Hey brother, I can't find your book on amazon in my country (Singapore), is there a pdf I can download somewhere?
That's weird, it should be available worldwide. It's also available on Kobo, they have a worldwide site: www.kobo.com/ww/en/ebook/ux-writing-for-beginners
@@UXHeWrote wonderful, I have it now, thanks andy!
@@shaikluqman1344 No worries. Hope it's useful!
I love this, and i really want to do this.
Thanks for sharing such informative content. You covered everything beginners would want to know and need to take the next step. I'm definitely intrigued and motivated to explore the UX side of things.
That's great news! Make sure you get my free book and templates as well! UX Writing for Beginners
Hey Andy! Do you think it’s a bad idea to take a few courses on ux design at my community college to be able to receive a certificate l? I’m currently highly interested in ux writing! Thank you for being so informative.
I would say it depends on the price. I think it's a great idea to learn UX design to help with your UX writing. But be careful or courses priced high because of a certificate. A lot of certificates might not actually be recognized by employers.
Thank you for the feedback Andy, I’m aiming at a UX design certificate to be able to work as a UX writer for employees.
Glad you're back
Thanks! Good to be back
Yay! you are back
Awesome resource and free! Thanks, Andy!
You're welcome Michael!
You are doing god's work here! Thanks a bunch
You're welcome. I hope you find it useful!
Legend, thanks.
😉 Enjoy!
Just downloaded it. Thank you for this. Really.
I hope you find it useful 😃
hi, your videos are so usefull! Can I see something of your portfolio to know how it looks a good one? Also at your web , the lin to linkedin shows 404 error.
Thanks Tere! I get a lot of people requesting portfolio videos so I guess I will have to see what I can do. There are some general guidelines, but I find it's always best to get a portfolio review/critique, because everyone's portfolio is unique. Where did you find my linkedin link that doesn't work?
@@UXHeWrote in your web
@@TerePeman That's very weird, it's working for me. You can search Andy Carney on LinkedIn though.
@@TerePeman I think it's fixed now. There was a setting turned off on LinkedIn...
Thank you! I really appreciate the info about free courses and self-study. It's been disheartening trying to pursue this without the money to spend on it, but this is really helpful and gives me hope!
I have a free book coming out soon so keep an eye out for that!
please sir, can i have some more ux writing videos?
Haha! More coming soon I promise. I'm finishing up work on my free book that will be out soon!
@@UXHeWrote cool, i look forward to that!
I really appreciate this video since it helped me reassure the decision I made about pursuing a career in this field. I have already finished a UX UI Design course and I loved it, however, when I learned about UX Writing it was almost love at first sight. This is because I also studied foreign languages & linguistics (didn't finish, tho), and for the first time I felt I could use that knowledge for something else besides translating, teaching, or being exploited by a customer service call center. Thank you!
Studying languages sets you up perfectly for UX writing!
Bro where did you study ux writer course
What a fantastic video. Thank you!
Glad you liked it!
