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.
I do have a sense of humor. Still, my preference for such blank pages is the
rather serious:
"NOTES:"
Or you could get creative and say:
"Use this page for writing notes."
Not only does it solve the problem of forcing chapters to end on even pages,
but it provides something useful to the reader and is a feeble attempt to
make a static, paper document more interactive.
