TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Not that it needs any endorsement from me, but I just downloaded the John
Renish book list, and I find it most impressive. If anyone is looking for
a book on any aspect of writing, I would strongly recommend looking through
the Renish list first. Often we see requests on the list for references of
one kind and another, again I think this list should be the first place
anyone looks for that hard-to-find writing reference.
Thanks to John for compiling it and Eric for putting it on the TECHWR-L
site.

course, if I did, it would still be free. <g>)
