Re: Creative writers among us?

[Beth Agnew <Beth -dot- Agnew -at- senecac -dot- on -dot- ca>]

My degree is in fiction writing, and I'm a veteran of the brutal 
workshop style classes that tear your work to shreds before your eyes, 
while you must sit close-mouthed and graciously accept the criticism. 
Lots of fun! I've published some short stories, and have always been 
working on a book or seven, as well as scripts and what not. My creative 
side usually comes out in the marketing writing that I do in additional 
to technical communication. When prospective TechComm clients/employers 
see my fiction degree, they wonder, so I explain that it is very helpful 
when writing about products in development.
