I guess it's time to stick *my* head in the oven...

I obtained a certificate in Technical Writing. I leave it as an exercise
for the reader to figure out if that's formal training or not. I
certainly learned something, and wished I had learned *more*. I learned
a great deal at Oracle Corp., but wish I had learned more *there* as
well.

Nothing in the world forces you to ask questions better than being a
lone writer at a startup.

I know very few Senior Technical Writers who have had formal training in
Technical Writing. In fact, I know very few technical writers who have
degrees or other types of formal training in Technical Writing.
