I'm Dave Lance.

I love technical writing. I mean that. What better way to be a techie and a journalist than to work closely with engineers and write about whatever it is they are building. I can augment my writing with video and isometric drawings. I know enough HTML5 and CSS and JS and some PHP and MySQL to understand you when you discuss them with me. And to write content that other engineers can follow. I find the best ways to convey information to an end user who needs it.

Accurate. Succinct. Immediate.

My resume.

&
I live in Bedford, Massachusetts.

A short commute to all offices along the 128 beltway. I love living in Bedford. It is a wonderful, warm-hearted community. And my child's childhood home.

I am available to join your team.

Call me if you are in startup mode. If your parking lot isn't empty on Sunday's at 2:00 p.m. If you are passionate about capturing the content and delivering it to a satisfied customer. I'm currently sitting on the bench. And I'm getting fidgety.

&
I am eager to dive headfirst into a DITA project.

Put me on a DITA project that's organized to deliver information better than any book or .pdf delivers it. Put me in to that game. Right on the offensive line. There isn't a technical writing tool I don't know. And if there is one, I'm eager to master it.

&
I drink lots of coffee.

I know all my barista's by their first name. I know what a Venti is. And I'm not afraid to ask for a refill.
