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.

The editors know that I'm as interested as they are in turning out good
work, and they're willing to take some heat for it from their higher-ups.I appreciate this on their part, and consider myself fortunate that they'll do this. Editors are a necessary evil, but they are after all my
representatives to the publisher, and it's not a good idea to alienate
them.

Wow, that sounds like a great situation then. You get the chance to "do it right" which we tech writers don't always get to do.
