APRIL 7, 2012

My blog now has an average of almost a 100 views per day. When I started out I just wrote about my learning experiences in my work and at conferences. Writing on demand.

Dialogue can be tricky to write. When I teach people how to write branching scenarios, writing dialogue is one of the places people get stuck. If you’re used to writing in a more formal style, writing dialogue can feel very unfamiliar. Tip #1: Use more contractions When you write dialogue, use contractions.

Conference presentations are really hard to get right compared to day-to-day decks. The main differences with conference presentations are that they tend to take place on a big stage in a big hall with a larger, more general audience than presenters usually face. At a conference you have a specific challenge. This is okay.
