A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Sherry Snider, Technical Writer evolved over years of teaching (English, reading, & speech), then, working in the IT (Information Technology) field. After documenting hundreds of technical processes and teaching others how to duplicate results, technical writing and training became the next logical career path. After many happy years of corporate employment as a documentation specialist and technical trainer, opportunities for independent contract and freelance work opened even more doors including documentation and training projects ranging from school and transit bus parts through HAZMAT procedures. Sherry still takes technical writing, multimedia, training, and consulting projects in a variety of industries. Though hardware (assembly, troubleshooting, repair, etc.) and software (user manuals, admin manuals, developers' guides, etc.) are usually her favorite projects, pretty much any customer with cool toys and tech to master has a good chance of capturing her interest . . . especially if her specific experience and skills offer significant value to the project or customer/client. Most of Sherry’s commercial publications are also academic or techie how tos much like this book, but she also shares her silly/fun projects and children’s books under the pen names, Wendy Tush and PJ Thyme. Since the reading audiences for children's story/activity books and technical/academic works are entirely different, pen names were definitely necessary to separate Sherry's bibliography into distinct genres.
