Hey designers! Writers don’t just fill the empty bits with words. They can help you tell a story. They help clarify what things stand for and what they do. They can distill a complex jumble of ideas into one simple sentence that makes people want to know more. They can find the perfect name that invites an audience in. They can help you focus and edit. They can, in short, make you a better designer.
