I don't know why I've never thought about applying story writing techniques to technical documentation before. After reading this is seems so obvious. Great post.
Thanks John, I've been experimenting more and more with storytelling techniques in my writing. My main publication (The Python Coding Stack) is where I have the practical aspects of my experiments. In this other Substack, I occassionally write about my experiments and thoughts.
Yes I'm already a subscriber to your Python Substack as a reminder to myself to immerse myself in Python at some point. I've been managing software engineers for the last 7 years and in doing so my coding skills have waned through lack of day-to-day use. The popularity of tech stacks is ever changing so I'm intending to dabble a lit more to bring myself up to date.
This is such a great insight and perspective on learning how to write a great technical article that is coherent. Thanks for sharing!
