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.
Not sure how current the content is in terms of 'best practice.' It looks a
bit dated.
Are you writing functional specs., as in, "the system will do this, that, or
the other thing...."?
It doesn't sound like you are writing detailed (code level) designs.
