UX Writing Summarized

Every busy UX writer can save time reading this.

Hi there,

It’s been … more than a while. I hope you are well. ☀️

📞 “Who’s this?”

Sorry. I’m Mattias (to the left in the picture), the UX writer from Sweden. I’m 39, a father of two, and a newbie puppy owner. 🐶

I’ve been sending out newsletters like this since 2018. What I do is this: for you, I summarize read-worthy articles, podcasts, and lectures on UX writing. I give you the key takeaways because your time is valuable. 🌟

This is my plan for the year to come:

🎉 I will continue to send you knowledge-packed newsletters

🎉 I will write a hands-on book on UX writing in English and Swedish (I’ve already started – lookout during 2023!)

🎉 I will launch an online course filled with almost everything I know about how to write microcopy

And already now …

… I’ve just opened the doors to “UX-writing på svenska” (UX writing in Swedish). It’s an online education UX writing program, starting on April 25. During 8 weeks, you’ll learn how to:

Research and hunt for the right words
Create a voice and tone guide to follow
Write call-to-actions, forms, instructions, confirmation messages, and error messages

The program will be at a steady self-pace with digital lectures in Kajabi, a unique hands-on course on Figma, Q&A sessions in Zoom, assignments based on your project, and an exam celebration on June 21. 🎓 🥂

Doors are open until April 1. So if you 1) speak Swedish and 2) want to learn UX writing from me, make sure you join. 🏃‍♂️ 🚴🏻‍♀️

👉 Sure! I want to know more about the program 👈

Bonuses 🕺💃

My all-time favorite book on UX is Don’t Make Me Think. Steve Krug is a smart person, and the book is a fun read as well.
