Abstract

I can honestly state that I was somewhat astonished when you handed me that letter from Editor Jay Gould indicating that he was considering publishing my article on technical writing. I don 't think I really believed that it was going to happen until I received the copy proofs. I remember a day some two years ago when a college friend and his wife paid Lenay and me a visit. They had not known that I was a published author; and when they spied my framed front page on an end table in the corner of our living room, they offered belated congratulations. I had the feeling that they were somewhat impressed and readily responded to all their questions. When asked how I felt about the article, I told them that next to marrying my wife it is the thing that I am most proud of in my short lifetime. Of course, our comtemplated arrival of children may push my article to third place, but still a proud third place. © 1981, Sage Publications. All rights reserved.
