TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
We've updated the TECHWR-L Poll with a new question (based
on Emily Berk's question posted to the list):
How do you, as a tech writer, generally handle requests
to provide free info or services?
* I nearly always fulfill the request
* I occasionally fulfill the request, if convenient
* I fulfill the request if I can benefit from it
* I ignore the request
* I redirect the request to other sources
* I politely decline the request
* I bluntly decline the request
* I decline the request with a form letter
* Other/none of the above
