Just promoted to Sr. TW!

[Michelle Vina-Baltsas <Michelle_Vina-Baltsas -at- datascope -dot- com>]

Hello all,

I'm happy to report that I've just been promoted to Sr. Technical Writer! 
It's been a long time coming and I'm very pleased. My new job description 
is somewhat vague because we're in a slight transition phase right now. 
We're considering moving to XML, are in the process of implementing a CMS, 
and are also embarking on writing documentation for a whole new product 
line. The Tech Pubs department I'm in has a manager and two other 
full-time TW's, plus one TW contractor. 

I've discussed my new position with the department manager and she has 
described the position as "managing the day-to-day activities of the other 
TW's".  Since this is the first Sr. writer in the group, we agree that 
it's going to take some time to adequately describe the position. 

How would the other Sr. Tech Writers out there describe their positions? 
Are you still writing a lot? 

Feedback would be appreciated. 

Thank you,
Michelle Vina-Baltsas
Senior Technical Writer
