Indeed, art should want no rules - well, there are some exceptions. I cannot yet come to grips with beginning a sentence without a capital letter, or end without a period. These are just two standard conventions. However, when it comes to creative elements - we should go where we're led.
I am reminded of my school days and especially composition, where we were given a topic to write on and then slammed down by the teacher for being too creative - being told for example. "There are no such things as....; and then, next period, being read Peter Pan.
I don't mind the odd little cliche in my stories. I love to sprinkle an, or is it, a, hyperbole or three.
Yes! basic grammar conventions please. Stilt your creativity - no.
