I liked this short discussion of a humorous poster entitled "The rights of the reader" by Daniel Pennac (he wrote a book with the same name). Indeed, this poster is quite in tune with what user-centered technical writers keep in mind as they write. :-)
Hi there! My name is Elena, and I am a technical writer living and working in Moscow, Russia. I'm passionate about technical communication, so I actively find ways to learn new stuff and establish new contacts in this sphere.
For several years I focused on writing documentation for financial software. In particular, I worked for Reuters Financial Software and Deutsche Bank. My current challenge is to set up a smooth documentation process at the IT department at Kaspersky Lab. My chief concern is to build a strong team of writers and efficiently integrate us with the rest of the company.

Here are some books related to technical writing that I read and appreciated -- and those I just can't wait to get hold of soon.
