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.
Hey Anthony. Start sending that resume out! :) Most people will understand
your situation (though some employers may be a bit wary of a 5-year illness,
as far as long term disability is concerned). Now's the time when the larger
companies are opening their doors to entry-level employees, as college is
out and there are hundreds of thousands of nearly-sober grads with no
experience pounding the pavement. *vbg* Figure out which industries interest
you and apply, apply and apply some more. You can do some side learning, but
don't hold your job hunt while you take these courses or learn these
technologies.
