Greetings,
I'm new to the list and anticipate some interesting dialog.
I am a "budding" technical writer. I am a veterinarian. I write magazine
articles for the professional veterinary and livestock popular press. I am
seeking freelance opportunities writing for the pharmaceutical industry,
animal agriculture industry, and U.S. Gov. (USDA, CVM, etc.).
Are there insights into my prospects for assignments? Is anyone else out
there writing in my industry? Do you have any advice, leads, or suggestions
for me?
Once again, I look forward to the postings to this list.
