Editor's Message

by Joseph M. Humbert

Joe is a Senior Member of STC and is currently the Treasurer and Web Weaver for East Bay STC.

Welcome. This is my second stint as your Managing Editor. In the last issue, which I took over in an emergency, I put out a plea for help. Luckily, folks responded with offers of help and articles.

First of all, let me thank my copy editors, Ken Evans, Elaine Pendergrast, and Susan Moxley for stepping up to the plate. And I may have a new Managing Editor take over the next issue and beyond. Terrific.

We have some great articles in this edition:

Laura Dahlinger and Josette Schaber, two writers out of Columbus, Ohio, write about how to transition from technical communication to project management.

Linda Cunningham attended the EBSTC-sponsored workshop, Writing Boot Camp. She writes about what writing gems they found.

Jane Olivera tells you Macintosh computer devotees how to get Microsoft Windows on your Mac.

Andrew Davis discusses a way new technical communicators can break into the business — internships.

Finally, if you would like to contribute an article for the May/June issue (deadline Apr 2, mid-April at the very latest), contact Joe Humbert at JoeHumbertSTC@aol.com.
