    Thanks for this! So many people make “day in the life videos” & just show them drinking coffee or walking their dogs lol. This was cool to watch. Also, you’re gorgeous!

    Thank you for sharing this! I have a couple of quick questions for you, if you're available to answer. 1. In your video you didn't mention doing any work after hours. Do you ever have to do work at home after hours? If so, how often? 2. Do you ever have to do work on the weekends? If so, how often? Thank you for your time, and for sharing this video.

      Like I said, no day in my life is the same.
      I do work after hours on some days of the week, especially when I am close to a deliverable or I have sync up calls with teams working out of different time zones.
      Weekends are a No No, unless it's a personal choice of completing some tasks that I couldn't through the week. But it's never been asked by any org I have worked with until now.

      @@PriyankaWycliffe I think they mean that "what does the work entail?" I don't think they expected a "full course on tech writing"..lol but like what makes a day in the life of a tech writer different from a day in the life of any other job? You mentioned a "writing sprint?" Could we at least get a sample of that? How do you know what to write? Are there any requirements you think are needed to be a tech writer? Things like that.

I was wondering what it entails too because one of my Public Affairs bosses sent me a link to work as a technical writer for Luma which is an energy company but I know nothing about it so I wanted to know a bit more about the type of work I'll be doing.

I would like to start as a volunteer first but I have a very little experience on TW. Having said that, I have 5 years experience on Content Writing and Copy Editing. Please can you help? Thanks!
