When I entered the field of technology writing a number of years ago, I asked why everyone seemed to think there was some sort of rule decreeing that this type of writing must be boring. How do you talk to an audience about technology? Are the experiences of the people using it not interesting to them? Could details about technology products, services and processes not be contextualized in a narrative that’s actually enjoyable to read? I decided to find out by running some experiments in my own writing. As it happened, infusing narrative style, humor and personality into writing about technology topics not only didn’t hurt; it drove traffic, engrossed readers and impressed editors and clients. It made the work stand out amid the reams of predictable technical writing online. As a top writer for SiliconANGLE media, I’ve written over 1,500 articles about every technology topic under the sun. I’ve also written email sales letters, web-page content, landing pages, case studies and more for clients such as Uber and the Cloud Native Computing Foundation. Get in touch if you want top-notch copywriting or other content for an audience of smart, demanding technology practitioners or consumers.
