Often it is, but one cannot sustain oneself as a writer of merit, as a writer whose works will live on, without quality. Quality control--who could disagree with that? Whatever we write needs to be freed from both paper and its production costs, but not from peer review, whose 'invisible hand' is what maintains its quality. Peer review is educative, informative, enlightening. Peer review invests you with the confidence that eggs you on to keep writing. Peer review offers you the credibility you seek in the writing market, from editors, publishers, agents and readers. Peer review lends respect to your writing, and with time, to your by-line. http://tc.eserver.org/26054.html http://tc.eserver.org/26054.html Thanks to Makarand, Paresh, Mira, and other contributors, some of our questions are answered after a gap of two years and we have some takeaways from the salary survey. http://tc.eserver.org/20374.html http://tc.eserver.org/20374.html The mantra of a customer-centric Information and Technology Age 'Content is King' is belied by complaints from technical writers of discrimination and organisational imbalance in favour of developers. http://tc.eserver.org/19740.html http://tc.eserver.org/19740.html Writing is popularly considered a spontaneous exercise, and often is.
