A common assumption among many would-be writers is that they can't write well because they were not born with the gift or skill of writing. This raises the question: are writers born or made?
Think of writing in general as the process of using symbols (letters of the alphabet, punctuation, and spaces) to communicate thoughts and ideas in a readable form. Technical writing, on the other hand, is the more specific process of sharing or conveying your ideas, views, instructions, and suggestions logically and technically.
"Technical writing is a type of writing where the author writes about a particular subject that requires direction, instruction, or explanation."
Simply put, technical writing involves straightforward, easy-to-understand explanations of and instructions for a particular subject.
I believe that anybody, whether born with some sort of innate ability or not, can learn how to become a great writer. Truth be told, most of the technical writers you see today likely had to develop or learn specific skills to become good at writing.
