Technical Writer - Exploding the myths

I’m a Technical Writer Technical Writing explained using photographs of Technical Writers from www.imatechwriter.com

The consequences of incorrect documentation can be great

Technical Writers guide users to their goal

They need to be accurate as possible

They explain technical information to non-technical people

Technical Writers often have to put themselves in the position of the user

They need to address different types of users

They need to be as unambiguous as possible

They employ a variety of techniques to question Subject Matter Experts

They produce a form of user support that’s available all times of the day

Technical Writers provide clarity and simplicity

They organize information so it’s easier to find

Technical Writers reduce the need to call the Support desk

It’s more than just manuals
