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.
After 14 years of freelancing, I've received an offer I can't refuse
from a local software development firm. In addition to the official
title on my business card, there is space for an additional
word/phrase. The company already has an HR Goddess and a Systems
Goddess. I don't want to encroach on their territory, so I'm
looking for a good tag line.
Somewhere in the deep dark recesses of my brain, there is a vague
memory of a discussion on this list about clever titles for
technical writers. The only specific one I remember is Mr. Hart's
"Professional idiot". I've been poking through the archives, but I
can't seem to find the right combination of key words to pull up the
rest of the posts.
Did anyone keep a running list of the suggested titles for their own
personal amusement?
Can anyone suggest new possibilities?
