Workbooks and study guides

I began my writing career as a technical writer with Westinghouse and my first book, still in print today, was a guide to technical writing, The Elements of Technical Writing (first published in 1982 under the title Technical Writing: Structure, Standards, and Style).

As a result of the book, I taught dozens of on-site, technical writing seminars to corporate clients. The book was not designed to be used in a training class, and so I compiled from the book and other sources a 50-page workbook, which I used in the seminar. I sold many copies to companies that bought the workbook for the attendees they sent to my technical writing workshop, but I also sold quite a few to companies that wanted to teach their own class but wanted to use my material as their workbook.

In the pre-PC days, you would print the workbooks and ship them to your corporate client; a typical fee was $29 per copy. Now you can e-mail a PDF of the workbook to the client, let them handle printing and collating, and charge a small royalty per copy, or even throw them in with your training seminar as a free bonus.
