Amanda L. Lutey's tagline stated:
> "Technical writers are trained to reveal almost nothing about
> themselves in their writings. This makes them freaks in the world of
> writers . . ." -Vonnegut
Vonnegut also stated that all writers write with an audience in mind.
This means that technical writers, like writers of all genres, follow
similar creative processes. But that's a dead horse that's been kicked
