Morning Social:  Chat about Technical Editing

Details

It's time to reconnect with other documentarians over a beverage of your choice!

Join us for a focused and friendly conversation. Attend for as long as your schedule allows. Our goal is to give you an opportunity to support and network with each other.

On October 25, we'll talk about technical editing: we all edit our own technical documentation, and some of us edit documentation written by other people, too.

  • What strategies do you use to edit documentation written by other people?
  • What editing tools and guidance do you rely on?
  • Are you a technical editor? Do you work with a technical editor, or do you wish you could?
  • What tools and techniques can you recommend for editing your own documentation or your colleagues’ documentation? What makes them so useful?
  • What spelling conventions or punctuation patterns do you always have to double-check in your style guide?
  • If we could grant you one technical editing wish, what would it be?
  • What questions do you have?

Bring your questions and thoughts, and we’ll share knowledge as well as get to know each other.

We'll use Zoom for this social. Please RSVP to receive the Zoom link here in the event description.
