My writers hate me, don't they?

Sometimes I make a document go back and forth to the writer so many times that I often wonder if they hate me for being so particular about changes I want in the document before it is sent to the client.

An article that should have been ready in a week's time took much longer...but phew, it is ready and looks fine to me!!

Dear writer, hate me if you will...but I want my client to love us for the work we deliver.

Medical Writing in India: the 2013 Survey

We are at it again!

In 2008, I had conducted a survey on medical writing in India. Part of the survey was presented that year at the 68th annual conference of AMWA.

It showed that unlike in the West, the medical writers in India were incredibly qualified. Over 90% of them were from the life sciences background...something you do not see in US or UK.

Is the trend changing? Are more and more people with journalism background entering the field? Where do most medical writers in India work? Are most of them on staff jobs or working as freelance? How much does as average medical writer in India earn? Are most medical writers in India males or females? 

Help us find that out. Sauren and I are trying to figure out how the scenario has changed over the last 5 years. Please participate in this 10 min survey to help us understand the medical writing industry in the country better. 

Here's the form. You can fill it up from right here and submit if you haven't yet received an email from us. Please be very careful about not attempting this survey if you are not a medical writer in India.
