Yesterday I had a very pleasant surprise. My son, almost 5, told me he wants
to be a technical writer. Even though he had trouble saying "technical," it
was nice to hear him say he wants to be like me. Are there others who would
feel honored to have a child follow in their footsteps as technical writers?
Have a great weekend everyone.
