BECAUSE IT'S FREAKING TRAINING, TONY! YOU HAVE TO PAY FOR TRAINING. OR BOOKS
OR ANYTHING TO LEARN MORE.
Seriously, just as you did to become an engineer, you have to study to be a
tech writer. We're not kidding about this. You want it all just spoon fed to
you with no effort on your part. Well, that's not how this goes. You have to
stretch and try and grow when you study anything if you want to understand
it. This is no different.
Jeezy, pleezy.

Thanks for the suggestion; however, that was one of
the first places I looked. The site shows what a
final piece of structured writing looks like, but only
hints at how we get there.
