Today we are announcing our Call for Proposals and ticket sales. Speaking at Write the Docs is a fantastic way to share your ideas with our wonderful community of documentarians.
Although the general focus of Write the Docs is on documentation, there’s a strong emphasis on the software industry. Within that thematic scope, we love having wide-ranging content that will stretch people in new directions.
Some of our favorite talks are ones that make people see the world in a new way. Teaching entirely new ideas to others can be magical, and we are always delighted with the breadth of knowledge that our community brings together.
We love talks that deliver hard-earned knowledge based on real-world experience and research. Whether it’s a story about spreading the documentarian gospel in your company or tips and tricks for writing that you’ve learned, come share it with people who are eager to know.
We believe that tech writing and documentation don’t always get the respect and consideration they deserve. Come share the problems with documentation your company overcame, or how you ensure documentation is an organizational priority.
You can read our full Call for Proposals on the website.
Write the Docs is a community event, organized and run by volunteers. The conference does not generate any income, and all revenue from ticket sales and sponsorships goes towards improving the conference. We believe that everyone who cares about this topic has a place at our event.
This year, our ticket prices will ensure that the absolute cost of the conference is covered, with revenue from sponsorships used to extend the conference and make it substantially more awesome.
If you can’t afford these prices and still wish to attend, please email us at portland@writethedocs.org and we can work something out.
As with the previous years, we have tiered pricing to make it fair for everyone. Please buy the ticket that best fits your situation.
Tickets are on sale now. Buy them now.
Purchase this ticket if a company is paying for your attendance.
Purchase this ticket if you are paying for yourself, work at a non-profit, or at a company with less than 10 employees.
Purchase this ticket if you are currently enrolled as a student, or don’t currently have a source of income.
We hope you will join us at Write the Docs again this year. Whether as a speaker or attendee, you can bet it will be another delightful year.
