RE: Technical writer survey: What should we really call ourselves?

["Lippincott, Richard" <RLippincott -at- as-e -dot- com>]

We can call ourselves whatever we want, but the -real- question that is
being asked here is "What do we want other people to call us?"

 

We may not be able to control that.

 

I suspect "Technical writer" is probably the most common term.
