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.
With your art background, why not also look into medical illustration?
Many medical schools have medical illustrators on staff (and, often, a
training or certification course for them as well), as do medical
publishers and journals.
I would think that with some knowledge of technical writing as well,
you could easily be a "double threat" on the job market.
For those who are unaware, a good medical illustration can be far
clearer than any photograph as a means of conveying information. Thus,
a good medical illustrator rarely lacks for work.
Hello Technical Writers Group or should I say bonjour because I live
outside Paris?
Anyway, this is my first note through the listserve. I am interested
in suggestions on how
to develop a medical, technical writing career. I have communicated
with Kevin and Sean
and found their experience and suggestions helpful.
