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.
Hello techwriters!
I'm a recent graduate of McGill in Computer Science, and I'm seriously
considering becoming a technical writer. My experiences with technical
writing are as a programmer, with software project documentation and as a
technical support person, with case by case documentation. Both jobs were
part time or internship opportunities. I'm currently doing some research
into what being a technical writer is all about, and I'd be interested in
any advice or stories you'd care to share with me, particularly ones about
you starting out. I know this is a kind of e-mail that many of you have
already seen before, but if you don't ask, you won't possibly receive. :)
In the meantime, I'm going to keep reading my 100 messages from the list.
;)
