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.
In the early days of the web, I used to call up conventions and tell them I was writing an article for my website, and then get a press pass. It would at least get me into the convention hall. Then getting into the conferences was not much harder than finding someone willing to part with a badge.
Good luck.

Subject: STC convention
I wish I were not missing the STC convention occurring up the street this
week. Are there any alternatives for a writer with No Money to attend?
