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.
I seem unable to come up with some cool projects on my own that I could
do in my leisure. I need something real to document.
Write a training manual covering the SW and HW you use daily in your job.
Write a better manual for your WP.
Write a troubleshooting guide for the computer HW and SW problems that you know
how to fix.
Surely you have a hobby or two? Write about it. (Numismatics -- write about the
features of the varieties of quarters and how to identify them; Philately --
write about the ways to determine the precise vintage of the 10-cent postage due
stamp; Games -- write a new, more useful, rulebook. I could continue, but you
get the idea.)
Have fun,
Arlen
