If you are a technical writer and you strive to constantly develop in this field, then you should be familiar with Write the Docs Community.
These guys set up meetups and conferences for Documentarians*, programmers, tech writers, developer advocates, customer support, marketers, and people experienced with software to share knowledge about communication and documentation.
Documentarian — a term for anyone who cares about the quality of documentation, and its impact on the users. [writethedocs]

What a pity that I missed this September conference in Prague. But I’m going to attend the next one in the USA or Europe and I encourage you to do the same.
The next one-day Write the Docs event will take place in Melbourne, Australia, on November 24.
Have a nice day!
