Hello,
Has anyone ever had any experience in creating a generic writing
department such that it blends "technical writing" with something more
creative like "screen writing"? If so, was the outcome a logical one?
Were there any benefits/drawbacks?
Please feel free to reply to me directly since this isn't necessarily a
technical writing question.
