I’m actually helping identify topics and speakers for the WTD events (as well as for the STC Silicon Valley chapter). I seem to know quite a few people, and I like connecting with various professionals in the area.

I’m impressed by the momentum of Write the Docs. It seems to be growing quickly in many areas of the world. It’s free to join, the meetings are often advertised through meetup.com. There’s even a Write the Docs Slack channel you can join. Slack is like IRC or chatroom software that enables groups to interact.

About Tom Johnson

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.
