Hi All,

I will representing Michigan Tech and technical writers in general at the
National College Fair next week in Baltimore. I was hoping to put together a
list of what tech writers do, so that when I am asked that question, I can
give some interesting answers, and not just the generic "write manuals and
stuff" reply.

I would really appreciate some help in replying to what we do. I can give
them a list of what I do...but then again, that might scare them away. :)
Also, if anyone has advice for me to pass on to young innocent souls who may
wish to become tech writers...let me know!

Thanks so much,

Melissa
