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.
Can the writer create acceptable documentation within the deadline?
A writer who works too slowly to reach the deadline, or who works too
quickly to produce acceptable documentation, are neither of them technical
writers to an acceptable standard.
Deadlines matter. Quality matters. Judgement matters. It's not "slow" or
"fast": it's can you meet the deadline, can you produce documentation of an
acceptable quality, and do you have the judgement to know what matters most
for each section of the documentation at each point in the project?

ago. If the issue is between our and their illusions, we will never resolve
the conflict."
