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.
Say, my brother, the starving-artist screen writer, is looking to break into
office work.
What can he do to get himself over this hurdle with the agencies?
What is the difference, in terms of job description, if any, between "data
entry" and "word processing"?

Your kidding, right? I can't speak for everyone else in the group, but I
didn't get the jobs and experience I have today playing secretary. I think
you have the wrong group. Lost and found is roughly two and a half doors
down the hall. ;-Þ
Good luck on your search, though.
