Tell Us A Bit About Yourself. Hi there! I'm Temmarie, a freelance Software developer and technical writer. Temmarie When I'm not coding or writing tech stuff, you can find me curled up with a Stephen King book, trying out new recipes in the kitchen, or experimenting with natural hair care. I’m currently working on no-code platforms like Framer, Webflow, and similar tools while also delving into AI and its endless possibilities. I’ve also been exploring the cybersecurity space, curious about user protection and safe digital experiences. What Inspired Your Writing Journey? My writing journey began with an assignment at Microverse, a remote software development bootcamp. In my bid to complete the task, I fell in love with writing and have since gone on to write more technical articles and documentations and even dabbled in a bit of ghostwriting.A special moment in my journey was when I got my first subscriber, and it wasn’t a friend or family member. Shortly after, someone sent me a message saying how much they enjoyed my tutorials and how easy they were to understand — even though they didn’t have a technical background. That event is etched in my mind and was a big moment of clarity and happiness for me. It reminded me that my words could reach and help people far beyond my circle, and I’ve been writing ever since. What Topics Do You Love Writing About, and Why? Most of my writing is software development–centred, often focusing on authentication and user account protection — those are the topics I’ve published on HackerNoon. My other writing projects range from simple user manuals to technical documentation for apps, and even academic writing for college students. I fell in love with how simple Devisemade the user authentication in web applications, and that curiosity led me to explore other authentication methods across different languages and frameworks.As for the future, there’s no guarantee I’ll keep exploring the user security niche. Still, I know my work will remain in the software development space — unless I eventually start a personal lifestyle blog for my hobbies. Devise What Was Your Experience Like During the HackerNoon Fellowship? The HackerNoon Fellowship was an amazing experience for me. It had its ups and downs, but it connected me with many like-minded individuals who were also trying to improve their craft. Seeing everyone’s ideas come to life made me realise there’s still so much in the software development space that I’ve yet to explore, and that was exciting. Limarc was an incredible mentor. He responded to my 3 AM submissions, provided thoughtful reviews, and taught me that technical writing doesn’t have to sound stiff — it can have warmth and storytelling that pulls the reader in and inspires learning. I’ll never forget how he even answered my queries right after his wife had a baby. He was an amazing mentor and editor. The course was intense, and writing an article every week was a huge challenge, which I unfortunately was unable to meet due to other commitments at the time. But the process reshaped my writing style; now, my work has more softness, warmth, and narrative depth, although many of those pieces haven’t been published here on HackerNoon yet. What’s Your Take on The Importance of Content Writing in The Digital Age? To me, content writing bridges the gap between digital evolution and everyday use. In today’s world, writers play a huge role in making technology accessible and meaningful. This evolution would be nearly impossible for non-technical users to grasp without help from writers breaking it down. And with the rapid pace of innovation and technological advancements, I believe we’ll need even more writers who can simplify these complex advancements into knowledge people can actually use. Why Did You Decide to Support the HackerNoon Writing Course as a Facilitator? I wanted to give back to the HackerNoon community and support new writers the same way I was supported. There are so many resources and guidance I wish I had at the start of my career — and I want to help others find them.Limarc was also a major factor in that decision. He made such a lasting impact on me in such a short time, and I want to be that kind of mentor for someone else — firm, patient, and genuinely invested in helping people grow. What Advice Would You Give to New Writers? Just write. Consistency is key. You don’t have to publish everything you write, but write something every day. Read books, do your research, and write about what you understand. If you don’t know what you’re writing, the reader will notice. something Write because you have a story or information you truly want to share — not as a chore. The moment writing becomes a chore, it’ll show in your tone.Also, start small. You don’t have to write huge publications or use sophisticated words to sound smart. Simplicity is elegant. For me, the beauty of writing lies in the ability to express complex ideas in simple words that anyone can understand.
