62. Technical Writing And The Macintosh The Chronicle Career Network 05/12/2000 How to Land a Career in technical writing. I felt there was a schism betweenmy academic life and my technical writing life, Mr. Campbell says. http://library.stanford.edu/mac/writing.html

Home Approach Credits Feedback Archive: Primary Documents Images Interviews Subjects: Counterculture Early Mac Mouse Technical Writing ... User Groups Technical Writing and the Macintosh The Invisible Writer Technical writing is one of those activities that historians of technology have almost completely ignored. In a period in which "the literary turn" has raised the interest level in all kinds of textual production, this lacuna is striking. In accounts of the development of the Macintosh, technical writers figure hardly at all. The conventional wisdom is that documentation had no significant effect on the computer itself. Like some other important but invisible activities designing the mouse , manufacturing computers technical writing just happens. But looking at documentation practices in Apple, and the role that technical writers played on the Macintosh project, reveals than the conventional wisdom is wrong. The technical documentation for the Macintosh was written as the system software was being written: consequently, the documentation and development processes were more tightly connected than in most projects, where (as Chris Espinosa put it) documentation is done "after the fact.. almost [as] an effort in investigative journalism." Further, the success of the Macintosh as a platform depended in no small part on lining up companies and developers to write for the system; to do that, they needed to understand how it worked. Inside Macintosh made that possible.

I think, my summation of the situation was, "...most technical writing out there bites the big one and there's no sign that the situation is going to get any better in the near future."

80. Writer's Block, Essay, Building A Technical Writing Portfolio - Winter 1999 Building a technical writing Portfolio. by Linnea Dodson. technical writing isone of the few careers in which building a portfolio can be almost impossible. http://www.writersblock.ca/winter1999/essay.htm

Winter FEATURE ESSAY BUSINESS WORD BOOK REVIEW ORIGINS POET'S CORNER LETTERS TO WB Essay Building a Technical Writing Portfolio by Linnea Dodson Technical writing is one of the few careers in which building a portfolio can be almost impossible. Novice writers have little experience and experienced writers are often muzzled by confidentiality clauses. Fortunately, employers know this. Unfortunately, you still need a portfolio. The solution is to show your skills by building writing samples based on common, household items. No example is too small or too silly, not in a field in which a standard interview request is "Describe how to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich." If you are applying for a job that involves clarifying a lot of industry jargon, start by opening your medicine chest and reaching for the aspirin — not to cure the headaches of job hunting, but to read the label. Warning labels and the legal fine print attached to drug or sweepstakes advertisements are fertile ground on which to practise jargon-busting. You'll impress any employer if you can reduce the word count while raising the comprehensibility of all that miniscule print. On the other hand, if you are looking for a job that involves how-to writing, walk through your home and pick three things that needed to be assembled and three things that plug into the wall. Without looking at the original instructions, write new assembly or installation guides. If at all possible, add appropriate bonus features: recipes for the microwave, instructions on the best way to position stereo speakers, and so on. Definitely include directions on how to program the VCR.
