Call for writers: Women in Technical Communication anthology
Over the past 50 years, the field of technical communication has changed dramatically. This anthology will collect the personal stories of women who have worked in technical communication from 1975 to today.
This time period captures some of the biggest shifts in technology: the rise of personal computers, the dot-com boom, the birth of the internet, and the spread of smartphones around the world. It also marks a major change in our field itself — from a profession once dominated by men to one where women have become the majority.
Your story matters. Your experience needs to be part of this history. This project is about making sure we — the women who lived it — are the ones telling our own story. We don’t want others to speak for us.
If you have worked in technical communication during this time, we invite you to share your journey. Help us make sure this history is preserved, in our own voices.
The call for writers closes June 30, 2025. To learn more and submit your piece, go here:
