The Joy of Writing

In addition to developing websites for a living, I write articles about electronics and software technology, mostly electronics test and measurement. I used to actually be employed by Test&Measurement World, an electronics trade magazine covering that industry.

Writing is hard work, but it’s a lot of fun, too. For the past year or two, I neglected that part of my business in favor of working on websites. Since the beginning of the year, however, I’ve been getting more requests to write, and I’m having a blast doing it.

Recently, I got a chance to write a slightly different kind of piece for Test&Measurement World—a personal profile of Henry Huang, TMW’s 2011 Test Engineer of the Year. That’s Henry at right.

He’s not only a great test engineer, but a great guy, too. To make a long story short, he’s not only managed to have a successful professional career, he’s the father of two children and a community volunteer.

At the risk of tooting my own horn (pun intended), I think my story about him turned out pretty well. It was certainly a lot of fun to write.
