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 haven't caught up with all the mail yet (spending too much time lying to bill
collectors) but I don't think harry needs this kind of synopsis, but the kind
you send out to agents and publishers when trying to sell your book. Those are
much more detailed and specific, actually a chapter by chapter synopsis.
So of course I've sent him one of mine :) Hope that does it.
