This month, I’m shifting focus from GET ALL THE WORD DOWN (learn more about
Badger Camp in my previous post—we’ll be doing another Badger Camp soon, so
stay tuned!) to creating intentional and intricate stories using the power of
engineering. My math background is engineering adjacent, and I hung out with
lots of engineers in college. I’ve always found the meticulous problem-solving
and innovative thinking that defines the field inspiring, so I’m featuring
“Engineering in Writing” for the month of May.
Engineering principles can facilitate many aspects of creative writing.
From constructing complex characters, charting their relationships with
one another, plotting out a twisty narrative, and puzzling together the
many elements of a story, writers often wear the hat of an engineer. I
want to explore how engineering concepts relate to writing and other
creative processes and how writers can use them to make more effective and
engaging stories.
Make sure to follow me on social media for insights, including specific
writing tips and some of my favorite video games that exemplify
engineering creativity. Check out my profile on Instagram, X, or Facebook,
