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.
Indeed. Most everyone can write, but some of some can communicate more effectively than others.

Subject: RE: Anyone Can Write - Just Look At The Job Descriptions
To be fair, I can draw stick figures and get a point across. Some might know how to write, but can they *communicate* ?
> Sure they learned to write in their first grade - just like they learned how to draw.
> Now ask that same person if they can draw a picture of a dog, specifically a Husky (for instance) and while they are at it can the make sure that the dog has an eager expression on it's face and in it's pose - but surely anyone can draw?
> Ah - perhaps we should be thought of as artists?
