Are you currently writing help topics from home? The chances are high that you are. Fortunately, technical writers seem to be less affected by all the wfh stuff since online help authoring tools allow working on user manuals from any place with the internet connection. And, also, some tech writers have been freelancing for a while, so the work processes should be not so difficult to adjust to the new circumstances.

We would like to mention that by no means you should feel like you have to be super productive all the time. If you find things like relaxing and spending quality time with family more fulfilling, this is perfectly fine, too. This blog is merely outlining the opportunities!

Stay safe.
Good luck with your technical writing!
