Bryan,

I don't have any advice for you, but just wanted to congratulate you on
making a career change. As far as career progression goes, tech writing is
often a "dead end" job unless you move sideways or out of it. (There is the
possibility of moving up, but there aren't that many options for that as
there used to be.) It sounds like you've been able to step into something
new - which is fantastic! I wish you the very best as you move forward.

Chantel
