What's wrong with "wrote"? A perfectly good, upstanding, old fashioned
verb.

How do you feel about the use of the word 'authored'?

Examples
--------

* in marketing material: "Our company authored project documentation
while adhering to strict configuration management policies."

* on a tech writer's resume: "Authored Software Design Document.
Authored marketing material..."
