technical writer position

I did technical writing and editing for about 15 years in Tulsa and D-FW. It was definitely a cyclic environment.

My current stint (with a big electronics retailer based in Ft. Worth) is the longest I've had in the field to date - 10 years this August. It is definitely cyclical in nature.

alot of the tech writing and editorial jobs are now freelance. companies find it more cost effective...no med coverage, paid holidays, etc. so just inundate employers with resumes, they're looking for intelligent and qualified applicants. i decided to go freelance because i couldn't stand the 9-5 nonsense and i don't regret it for a nanosecond.
