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.
If you honestly believe the agent is obvious in every case where you use passive voice, then all is good, and it's up to the SME and/or Marketing to tell you otherwise (or not).Â
Chris, I think we are agreed!ÂOnly each post seems to raise a new can of wormsâÂ
Where you work, is it really the case that SME's and Marketing know enough about audience analysis to instruct the technical writer?
Cripes, there's an argument for not having a tech writer in your organisation if ever I heard one!
(OK, OK, I'm only half-pulling your leg!).
