Dear List,

I need to establish a procedure with the SMEs so that I can use my time more
effectively and efficiently when receiving their documents for editing and
review.

I'm being sent documents to edit which are in various stages of development
and I end up editing the same doc many times as the content is updated. Many
of the docs are incomplete to begin with. Does anyone have a simple set of
instructions that spells out when to send documents to the tech writer for
editing? Many of my coworkers have never worked with a tech writer. We are a
small company so I don't need Hackos-level complexity, but I'd appreciate
any input from my more experienced collegues on the list. (Reply off-list if
you'd like.)

Thanks-
Rich
