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'm of the "tell 'em what you are going to say, say it, then tell
them what you said" school.
I don't care if someone who knows what's going on thinks something is
redundant. If it will help those who do not know, then I leave it in.
