RE: More alternatives to 'Technical Writer'

["Lauren" <lauren -at- writeco -dot- net>]

I've called myself a "Documentationalist" as a joke, but I've seen it
offered as a job by some companies.  I also discovered that calling myself a
documentationalist has led to a little confusion for people who think that
because the end result of my job is a set of documents that my job is easy
and requires very little work and that I just produce documents, like in a
vacuum or something.  There appears to be some oblivion to the fact that I
interview people and analyze systems in order to produce "documents."
