Try WorldOfWords...a creative writing workshop email list at eGroups
(http://www.egroups.com/search?query=worldofwords). I enjoyed meeting the
weekly topic challenge, until I ran out of time. Good practice, though, and
I learned from the critiques.

But you do bring up a point -that the love of language, and writing, and the
skills for putting words together as an act of creation and design have gone
the way of penny bubble gum. It does start early, beginning with the voice
of our parents reading those bedtime stories us.
Wordsmithing, I fear, has become nothing more than something that fills the
blank space around the buying message. Creating wealth has become an end in
itself. Writing is not as exciting as selling net stocks, certainly!
