Um ...help?

So... Pretend I'm a Tech Writer (and that I know what I'm doing)

What do I need to know about search engines? Imagine I'm trying to use optimization techniques for search engines within an article.

Oh, yeah, and imagine that I've never used a computer before...

Twelve days and two Sci Fi novels later and I'm almost back to myself.  And now I have to figure out what to be when I grow up...  Scary.  But first, I have a plan.

I'll go back and get more school.

For right now, however, the plan is to break into Tech Writing.  But how the hell do I do that?  I have stellar grades, a lot of geek friends, and I am a great writer (if I do say so myself) ...But I've never worked a tech job in my life, and I never learned C++.  I've hung around you all long enough to know that C++ is worthy of being mocked, but I don't even know it.

Still, if lack of knowledge in an area had ever stopped me from trying before I would have never made it to Kindergarden, right?

So I'm off -- into the great wide wonder -- trying to find my way.

Any words of wisdom?
