Once upon a time...

Once upon a time, a boy fell in love with words. These words unlocked many magical lands and took him on grand adventures across worlds and places that most people could not have ever imagined. Words took him into the minds and thoughts of some of the most imaginative, creative, magical and wondrous people that have ever lived. Words transcended time.

Soon, this boy was reading upto four books a day. This got him into trouble with people who thought his time should be spent better doing other things. But the boy had learnt to be inventive, and found ways to appease those dissenting voices and continue devouring words. And more words. And so, when the time came for this boy to become a man, he stepped confidently out into the big, bad world wielding words as his weapons, using words as his armour, and plying words as his trade.  

Over time, all the wondrous, imaginative, creative and magical words kind of rubbed off on him, and his personality was tainted with these qualities for ever. This is not to say that the Wordman is always wonderful and magical, but that he can be. All you have to do is prepare to take the plunge with him, to let him immerse you in worlds made up of words, as so many others have over the last 25 years.
