F* yeah:
How to spend your time
Beyond a discussion of tools and workflows, Etter offers some advice for
writing good content. He says,
â producing content that people will read and find useful is, like, *really
hard.*
Instead of writing all day, Etter says technical writers should spend 90%
of their day learning (through testing and research), and only 10% writing.
You write only after you have a good understanding of how the system works.
