Hey, the company I am at now just found out our writer will not be available to write for us even though our new site launches in a week.

So rather than fuss through crap I though I would check here.

We need someone who is a very good writer with technology. Pretty much picture google maps and writing press releases for it along with a thorough support section, about, advertising, etc.

If this tickles your fancy and have work to back it up let me know.

The work should be a couple full days work, location doesn't matter but US and Canada would be the easiest.

"Hello, what have we here?

I do that kind of work, but I'm not doing it right now.

What about checking with mojo2? I think he might be good at something like that.

I can do that sort of work too.

I know a guy who lives at Dundas and Lansdowne. An excellent technical writer, has done tons of similar work. Want his details?

My wife is a copy editor/writer. I doubt she'd want to do tech writing though.

Yeah, tech writing's probably boring anyway.

Thanks for the plug, erik, but I'm up to my eyeballs in school-which starts Monday. Sounds like an interesting gig though.
