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.
STC has a sample letter that I've used successfully in the past.
You might look for it on the STC web site ( http://www.stc.org/ ),
or thru back copies of Intercom (their magazine). A copy will
probably be reprinted when the actual registration info. comes
out early next year (the conf. isn't till May 2000).
good luck!
