I'm way behind on my reading of the digests, so I'm coming in on this a bit
late. I was wondering if any technical writers who are also fiction writers
have written stories *about* technical writers.

I missed the original question too, but I wrote fiction starting in my
early teens and continuing until about 10 years ago. (Never published
anything though.) You can see some of it on my personal web page if you're
really really bored: http://personal.nbnet.nb.ca/abmagee/novels/index.htm.
And now I'm a tech writer.
