Comment Comment by roydivision I've been mulling over the idea of transitioning from Sysadmin/DevOps into technical writing for a while now.To any technical writers listening :- Can one make a living from it?- Typically are you working on a consultant basis, or permanently for a company?- The job seems like an ideal WFH gig, is this the case?- Seems to me you will need a 'portfolio' to get work? I'm guessing starting with Open Source projects would be a good way to build up a body of work?Cheers.(edit - formatting) parent roydivision 2 years ago
To any technical writers listening :
- Can one make a living from it?
- Typically are you working on a consultant basis, or permanently for a company?
- The job seems like an ideal WFH gig, is this the case?
- Seems to me you will need a 'portfolio' to get work? I'm guessing starting with Open Source projects would be a good way to build up a body of work?
Cheers.
