Breaking the Rules: Bringing storytelling to technical writing
暫譯: 打破規則：將敘事帶入技術寫作

Storytellers know a thing or two about engaging their readers. There's a reason why stories have always been a key part of humanity.

And there's plenty of neuroscience to justify humans' need for stories.

Breaking the Rules explores ways of borrowing techniques from storytellers and adapting them to technical writing.

It's not just about writing stories. There are more narrative techniques that can be used in technical articles to lower the reader's cognitive load, ensuring they engage, understand, and retain the information.

This book won't tell you what to do. It will help you ask questions about your technical writing and find the answers that are right for you.
