Working Notes

Active independent publication

Role: Creator, Technical Writer, and Editor
Status: Active and ongoing (launched 2026)
Audience: Technical communicators and documentation job seekers

Working Notes is where I publish practical articles about documentation systems, editorial work, job research, and the methods behind my independent projects.

Selected publication work​

These examples show two recurring parts of Working Notes: editorial audits and job roundups.

Editorial audits. A newspaper-style graphic for the Everyone needs an editor series.

Job roundups. A publication graphic for short selections based on reviewed documentation job records.

Automated content audits​

I designed and used spelling-audit scripts to review public websites. The published Grammarly audit and Unity audit connect each finding to the source page and show the evidence behind each correction.

I combined automated checks with manual review and wrote the results for a public audience.

Job research and project writing​

Good Doc Jobs provides reviewed job records for reader-facing roundups. I also use Working Notes to explain the decisions behind the project. Just a Spreadsheet describes why the public spreadsheet stays simple while the source system keeps the detailed operating history.
