Two New Blogs to Add to Your Reader: Craig Haiss' Helpscribe and Sharon Burton's Madcap Blog
I've discovered two new blogs that I think are definitely worthwhile to add to your Google Reader:
- The first is Helpscribe, by Craig Haiss. He seems to have good common sense and I enjoy reading his perspective. His content is very focused on help authoring.
- The second blog is Sharon's Madcap Blog, by Sharon Burton. She's an intelligent, experienced writer who has recently joined Madcap Software and is a project manager for Blaze.
As always, there are more blogs on my blogroll here: https://idratherbewriting.com/blogroll. And if you're a help author with a blog, but you aren't on my blogroll, please let me know so I can add you.

About Tom Johnson
I'm an API technical writer based in the Seattle area. On this blog, I write about topics related to technical writing and communication — such as software documentation, API documentation, AI, information architecture, content strategy, writing processes, agent skills, tech comm careers, and more. Check out my AI courses for more on the latest in AI and tech comm. If you're looking for info about documenting APIs, see my API documentation course.
If you're a technical writer and want to keep on top of the latest trends in tech comm, be sure to subscribe to email updates below. You can also learn more about me or contact me.
Finally, I want to note a couple of things. I usually write the first drafts of my posts myself and then use AI to improve accuracy, clarity, and detail in places, so my writing is a mix of human and AI. (Hopefully that's not too off-putting.) Also, the opinions I express on my blog are my own perspectives, not those of my employer.
