writing | editing | information design



I am an Austin, Texas writer and editor with eleven years of experience developing a variety of technical and non-technical documents. I've written for audiences ranging from the highly technical to the mostly clueless and covered a broad spectrum of topics, including:

  • B2B enterprise solutions
  • Online newsfeed syndication
  • Online learning infrastructure
  • Bioinformatics
  • Electronic component configuration tools
  • Animation and game development tools
I've written installation and configuration manuals, procedural guides, user guides, reference material and online help, as well as web content and product literature. In my spare time I'm writing a cookbook for one, and I sometimes edit and proofread English subtitles for Asian TV dramas.

I see it as my job not just to write accurate, easy-to-follow procedures, but also to work closely with developers to improve the software itself. As one of the first people to see a new product, I'm in an ideal position to spot potential issues early on.

I'm currently seeking a permanent, full-time position. Please email tanner@writingtable.net with any questions.
