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.

For what itâs worth, I was âforcibly retiredâ in late August 2018 when my company outsourced the tech pubs function. I refused to give in and still do occasional contract tech writing in addition to publishing a quarterly journal for professional and amateur astronomers worldwide as a âhobbyâ.
So whether youâre fully employed or not, donât give up the ship. Tech writing in its various forms remains at the top of my list.
