First draft (very rough) was 22nd October
Second draft (toned around a bit) was 5th November
Security review + a proper edit happened while I was on Holiday on the week of 8th-12th November (lots of comments left for me), basically nothing got removed, I think one image and about 2-4 lines of text from memory
I came back to a bunch of comments (nearly all on the Monzo Tone of Voice https://monzo.com/tone-of-voice/), went through those, proof-read and then got a green light from:
- Engineering
- Marketing + Press
- Some other folks in Security (because of the content)
And then we moved this over from Google Docs where I was drafting it into our Blog system (Contentful), had a quick skim to make sure it read properly and then published :)
