I left this list to pursue new technologies. That was not the correct path.
Here's my query, and I've posted it before. If you can take the time to
answer me carefully, I will read, print, and peg up all answers:
I am now a lone techwriter in a fast-paced start-up. We need everything done
- from templates to documents needed to Help to training to document
numbering system and file naming conventions. Also, we need to keep informed
about new technologies.
I'm not focused right now. I don't know what to tackle first. I know
day-to-day documents have priority, but what about everything else? Do I
make a project for myself in Microsoft Project (not a tool I have, but I can
get it) and then...
If you were me, how would you divide your time? I've taught myself a good
bit of RoboHelp and am now evaluating WWP. Is this what I should be doing?
I could use some help over here.
Thank you very much for your time.
