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.
Hmmm... Now I always wanted to write fiction as well as documentation,
but never had any luck getting anything published, and one comment
several editors made was that my ideas weren't original enough. Could
that have something to do with why I seem to be better at technical
writing?

Technical writers aren't usually hired for their flashing genius and
creativity, they're hired for their knowledge and ability to explain
complicated subjects; so eccentrics need not apply.
