How'd you get into that tech writing job? I'm a grad student in biochem and I had thought about doing some tech writing on the side, but I'm not really sure how one gets started with such things. On a more relevant note: how much teaching experience did you get in grad school? Did you know going in that you wanted to end up at this sort of small, teaching-focused school? What's tenure based on?

Have you ever taught a scientific writing class? If you were to do so, is there anything in particular you'd change about your 'information management' approach (aside from the obvious content, journal databases, etc)? Do you have to badger more traditional colleagues into working the way you're describing? The collaborative process you present is frankly far more sophisticated than anything I've encountered in science - literature mining is one thing, but in terms of group collaboration the best we've done is email around a commented-up word document.
