    Anchoring is my memoir. It details what I have uncovered about myself and reality so far, especially in my journey in the healing arts and sciences. In a story telling narrative, I bring the reader on my winding journey to experience the full breadth of experiences impacting my physical, emotional, mental, and energetic self. Topics include past lives, physics, science, our universe, multidimensional realities, nature of how things work, duality of light and dark, numerous beings of our universe, and how things connect. My hope is that it reaches and helps those trying to deal with great suffering, trying to find answers to nagging questions, and ultimately to be comforting.

    In this new and updated edition of the acclaimed classic Interviewing Users, Steve Portigal quickly and effectively dispels the myth that interviewing is trivial. He shows how research studies and logistics can be used to determine concrete goals for a business and takes the reader on a detailed journey into the specifics of interviewing techniques, best practices, fieldwork, documentation, and how to make sense of uncovered data. Then Steve takes the process even further—showing the methods and details behind asking questions—from the words themselves to the interviewer's actions and how they influence an interview. There is even a chapter on making sure that information gleaned from the research study is used by the business in such a way to make it impactful and worthwhile. Oh, and for good measure he throws in information about Research Operations. 
     
     
     
    But, hey, that's just the nuts and bolts of the book. The truly fun part is Steve's voice and how he portrays this information through amusing anecdotes about his career, fascinating examples from other practitioners, and tips and tricks that only the most experienced UX researchers, like Steve, could come up with. As a nod to the pandemic, he offers ideas for the best way to interview someone remotely, and he also discusses personal bias—how to identify and deal with it so that it doesn't affect interviews.
