If you have question you would like help with, you can subscribe to the Technical Writing Mentors mailing list to submit your question. This list is new but will eventually include a lot of professionals, academics, other others willing to give advice and guidance about the technical communication profession.

The most common questions I receive on this blog are how people to break into technical writing, especially if you're a student or are transitioning from another career. See information about pursuing technical communication as a career, see the Beginner Tips category.
