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.
It might be a good idea to define what you mean by "Health Tech Writer,"
since college programs sometimes use category names that aren't common in
the working world. Some of us who have worked with medical devices,
laboratory instruments and other similar systems may be "Health Tech
Writers" and not even realize it. :)
