A bit late in replying here, but I think role playing is a great skill indeed. That's part of what I do for my job, when we go out on our Disability-Awareness Trainings. It's a lot of fun, but to be honest I'm getting a bit sick and tired of the way we do it. But that's another story. I think another skill that lends itself well to my writing is my knowledge of accessibility. I will fully admit to not knowing everything there is to know about it, but I'd say I know a good deal. I've posted a few entries in my journal having to do with accessibility.
