Question about expanding the role of technical writers
Subject:Question about expanding the role of technical writers From:"Cardimon, Craig" <ccardimon -at- M-S-G -dot- com> To:"'TechWhirl (techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com)'" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com> Date:Fri, 4 Dec 2015 17:17:00 +0000
Good afternoon and Happy Friday, Whirlers!
For everyone on this list who works as a technical writer or communicator, what else are you involved with other than documentation?
For instance, if you are do software testing, sing out. Or, if you are involved with marketing writing, sing out. If you make how-to videos, don't be shy.
Don't spare the specifics, either. I want the nitty-gritty.
I ask because my manager wants us to think about expanding our individual roles.
Cordially,
Craig Cardimon | Senior Technical Writer
Marketing Systems Group
