On the craft of writing

For technical writing, I tend to adhere to the principles of minimalism.

Background

This is the part where I attempt to describe myself. Ah, the everlasting philosophical question: How to grasp the enigma of the self? Is it even possible to identify this loquacious author—a voice without body—with whom you've been interacting?

Evidently, I don't really exist—at least according to the renowned semiotician Umberto Eco, who states that the author is not important:

My ontology gets even more complicated, because Eco proclaims that:

In other words, we are to forget the author who created the text. The author is not here before you. Only the other entity—the text—is here, speaking to you. But if it's any comfort, there are traces of my existence. I can say with certainty that I'm a writer in the United States. A graduate of San Jose State University, I've been writing for the computer industry for over ten years. Beyond the walls of the corporate world, I enjoy driving sports cars and savoring fine wines, especially old world wines. My other interests include photography, literature, and exploring music in my home recording studio. I spent my childhood in Toronto, Canada and currently live in the suburbs of Charlotte, North Carolina.

Services

As an established writer, I bring considerable real world experience to my work. I'm accustomed to tight deadlines and aggressive workloads that typically characterize documentation projects. This means I make sure your project gets done right—and done fast.

I continually extend my authoring and multimedia design skills to provide customers the effective information they need. As a result, you get a writer who maintains a high standard in the craft.

In addition, my experience in various industries means that you get a writer who adapts quickly to your project. This lowers your risk because the orientation to your project will be refreshingly short, and you can receive quality documentation quickly.

It all leads to one thing: you can rely on me to provide creative, punctual, professional, and consistent excellent work.
