I have been a technical writer for six years, and a writer in some fashion or
another (yes, marketing) for sixteen. I am not a programmer, do not wish to
be, and have never had a problem working with programmers. I respect their
ability and they respect mine. Yes I can recognize a little code, but I'm
much better at recognizing a user.
