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.
~|>Since I stopped being involved with the STC three years ago:
~|>
~|>- my income has increased 135%
~|>- I'm working with industry leaders on technology so new that the
~|>cutting edge looks primitive beside it
~|>- I do strategic planning as well as tech writing
~|>- I'm paid to travel and my wife often comes with me
~|>- on the side, I'm paid to give my opinion to over 100,000 readers

Well, Bruce, as the late, great Dizzy Dean said, "If you done it[,] it
ain't bragging."
I've been debating whether to join STC, as the nearest chapter meets
about an hour's drive from where I work (and nearly an hour and a half
from my home) and neither of my employers will pay for the membership.
Now I know the answer: in order to achieve success, I should join and
then withdraw. :~)
