Wordknights is a network of people who love writing, storytelling and have fun with words, fun with puns and the whole works ! Who love language, love words and most of all the Word, the Giver of Life from whom we believe all creative energy derives. The Word is liberating and inspires in us both Wisdom and Fun despite the tragedy is these two so rarely appear together whilst frequently Foolishness and Fun are regular bedfellows in our world if you know what I mean. We are a bunch of passionate lovers of words but only of good words though we need to stress. We say this ‘cause we respect one another and we think times are sick enough without having to stomach vile ventings and rude rantings from another member of the human species. So if you have a fetish for foul language, you may want to stay clear of this group. Otherwise we’re happy to welcome you to join Wordknights so long as you believe your love of writing is Godgiven to make a difference for the betterment of mankind. Yes we believe in God the Creator and we shall not get into debates about whether He is One or 3-in-1 or is He a Spirit or a Person - and is He Male or Female? What the heck! Didn’t He say He Is the Great I AM who knows all our quirks and quests? So, as long as you have a decent and noble aspiration to write and share our passion for writing and publishing – and yearn for your words to get onto a page with someone sensible and intelligent reading it and another patiently listening to your jottings and the whole group contributing frank critiques delivered albeit gently – this then is the big idea of spinning this new network which will meet monthly as Wordknights on 4th Thursday nights.
