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.
I'm curious to what contractors on this list think of the pay scale
guidelines in Writer's Market (WM). The WM breaks out several types
of writing and uses several "modes" (per page, per hour, per job,
etc.) of payment, and lists each by category. I don't have my copy of
WM here at work, but some of the categories included business
writing, copywriting, copyediting, technical documents, etc. Very
interesting. Some seem a little high, but . . .?
Thanks.
