Technical writers can sometimes have a rough time finding employment on their own terms, but Susan Bilheimer is trying to change that. Bilheimer owns and publishes the Tech Writing Marketplace Report. Each issue offers a number of perspectives on the tech writing industry. This is more than a bite-size ezine. Each issue features at least two in-depth articles and also includes a list of job announcements for tech writers, divided into regions.
Articles run the gamut from inspirational to technical.
There's also advice on how to negotiate fair rates and understanding the way recruiters think. Most of all I enjoy Bilheimer's style. It's friendly without being overly chummy, and she informs her readers if there will be any breaks in the publishing schedule. If you or someone you know is currently a technical writer or considering taking the plunge into the business, subscribe to the Tech Writing Marketplace Report. High-speed, reliable email list hosting is our ONLY business.
