Rachael, it sounds to me like you're talking about humor in tech writing,
not creativity. Granted, humor is creative, but tech writing can involve
creativity in many ways that do not involve being humorous. Try searching
for tech writing and humor and maybe you will find what you are looking for.
Writing is like getting married. One should never commit oneself
until one is amazed at one's luck.
