    A hobby of mine is writing (well OK then, trying to) film screenplays. I have
    looked at 'writing schools' and never bothered with them. Writing a screenplay
    concentrates the mind on writing words that convey more than the words themselves i.e.
    the atmosphere (although that is also down to good direction, camera work etc.) of a film.

    Such skills, as others have pointed out, do really help when it comes to technical
    writing.
    You often have to write with the 'user' or PHB in mind.

    Just my 2 Euro's worth (not many people from Europe on the list is there?)

            Cheers

            Simon
