I work in an industry where the level of business writing skills in astonishingly and disparingly poor. Good writing is becomming a lost art and one that should be nutured as much as possible before it is lost altogether.
I completed the PWE Diploma several years ago - including many creative writing units - and found the whole experience invaluable in my daily (drearily non-creative) workplace writing tasks.
Rather than dumbing down learning, let's promote literacy in all its forms, before the 'tweets' take over the world!

 YES!  And are not birds at the so said beginning of the evolutionary line?   Don't misunderstand, I love communing with them, but there's only so much that can be said; 'what a nice day' or ' oh, there's rain coming.'  Or, are we perhaps on the verge of morphing into Walt Disney clones, I ask.

Fully morphing that is.
