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.
bb> I would be interested in hearing from those tech writers who
bb> work out of their home.
I really enjoy the freedom but put much effort into keeping contact to
colleagues. E.g., I am quite active in my professional society (tekom here in
Germany).
bb> Do you have difficulty finding work?
This is definitely a problem that I partially solve by being very well known
and by trying to keep my customers happy. This way a few jobs come in without
any efforts from my side. This is important as there are times when you cannot
worry about aquisition.
