TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.

Peter Kent's book _Technical Writer's Freelancing Guide_ has salary listings
from all across the country (including those in the 6 figures!). STC puts
out lists on salaries. I discussed the vast salary range for technical
communicators in my Master's thesis -- no consistency in that part of this
field.
