Some writers perfer to work in isolation? I don't get this. Technical
writing is procedure specification. And procedure is turf. To get it
the writer has to go out and "drag-it-out" of the end user or SME. The
ability to do such is key to success. I really can not see how any
technical writer can efficiently and effectively function in isolation.
