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.
Penny Staples asked for resources on marketing writing.
Penny, here's one recent book that's received good reviews:
King, Janice. 1995. Writing high-tech copy that sells. John
Wiley and Sons, New York, 275 p.
I haven't read the book, but Janice has been skillfully
writing about marketing for several years now in _Technical
Communication_ and elsewhere. If she's as good with books
as she is with shorter pieces, this would be a great place
to start.
