Re: What's the definition of a published author

Am I published by virtue of having written user

guides for a software

package. I'm filling out a questionnaire and

whether I was published or

not was one of the questions.

My definition: Someone outside of a "9 - 5 employer" paid me to write. My name appeared in the credits, or as the main author, and at least one person besides the publisher paid for the publication.


Diane Evans
Technical Writer since 1986, and published author since 1995

Writer: someone who writes.
Author: someone who actually gets paid for writing.
