You should end a cover letter by asking for an interview:

Technical writing is technical communication aimed to get work done, to change people by changing the way they do things, in a nutshell the purpose of technical writing is to "empower readers by preparing them for and moving them toward effective action". In order to help readers you must---Find What They Need--Understand What They Need---Use What They Understand Appropriately Technical writing is a very broad field: - Annual Reports -Books -Magazines -Newsletters -Informational Materials -Training Materials -Etc..

the 8 facets of reading are (1) as a sensory process, (2) as a perceptual process, (3) is a response, (4) as a learned process, (5) is a developmental task, (6) as a tool for learning, (7) growth process, (8) as an interest. the 8 facets of reading are all interrelated, with each point of view depending upon and contributing to others.

To understand reading, we must therefore, see each point of view and the interrelationships among all point of views.

Critical thinking isn't so much an influence as it is a necessary prerequisite. If you write without thinking, your work will be random and incoherent; just whatever popped into your head. It won't make sense to anyone, even to you when you read it later.

The only way to write convincingly and with force is to plan out what you will say. Some people plan with an outline, others by writing a rough draft then revising, still others (I envy them) by working things out in their heads, but every good writer thinks carefully about his work.

paragraph formatting... hope i could help :D

Do the words sound casual or formal

A hook and thesis statement in the introduction paragraph; a body with at least three supporting paragraphs, each focused on a topic sentence; and a conclusion paragraph that wraps up the essay and closes with a clincher sentence that restates the thesis in new words.

A well-developed paragraph has a thesis, an introduction, a body and a conclusion.

You come up with your ideas when the page is blank. Then you start organizing them.

I like word processors for the way I think. Other people think different!

My first sentence is where I want the paragraph to end up.

My second sentence is where I am.

The body is how I got from the second sentence to the first sentence.

Then I move stuff around.

Then I rewrite the paragraph.

Other people do it different.

Margaret Mitchell wrote Gone With the Wind backwards. She wrote the last chapter first. Then she wrote the preceding chapter. Finally, she wrote the first chapter.

Katherine Marshall rewrote her novel Christy 49 times.

There has never been a correct way for professional writers to come up with their ideas and organize them. The only common factor has been in the constant rewriting and reorganizing.

The key points are the things that you have to know in order to understand the story. They're the main plot points. You find them by asking yourself "Is this an essential piece of knowledge?" as you read. Things like the character passes a bluebird are not likely to be important unless the book is about the search for a bluebird, for example. Anything that moves the plot along is probably a key point.

To indent a paragraph is to put a length of space at the beginning of a paragraph to mark it as such. Unfortunately the text entry tool for WikiAnswers doesn't allow me to show you.

Peer review is the process of peers in the field of the work review the work and give opinion of it. The purpose of peer review is to ensure that it is quality work.

As few as one, but there is no upper limit. It is important to keep in mind though that the title does not carry the weight of the work, so let it do its job and move on. That is, don't linger over a lengthy title. Brevity is after all the soul of wit.
