I am a Canadian technical writer who is also a programmer and a graphic designer. Is it easier for me to work in the states through a TN visa (which specifically mentions technical writers)? I've never tried looking in the US but I've always wondered if that would help ease some of the visa issues.

The TN is a good option and all occupations are good TN options (depending on your education because there needs to be a nexus between your education and the job): technical writer, (software) engineer, and graphic designer.

You should choose the TN occupational category that will fit your job description and experience/education best.

  That's correct and the occupations that I/you listed are all solid TN occupations - meaning generally there's no issue getting them if you also have the appropriate corresponding education.

The TN visa does not have a lottery, unlike the H1-B. It also comes out much faster.
