ACCESS_FORUM_NAMENo, wait. Don't tell me
We've created this area in the hope of seeing material ranging from some well-told (or well retold) jokes to original writing with a humorous slant, or anything else that might appeal to the kind of person who enjoys playing with words more than people. That probably means someone like yourself. N.B. -- Postings preceded by ** contain some sexual or risqué content. (Makes them easier to find.) - 1111 Topics

Please include both the name of the book and its author(s) in the title of your posting. Our gratitude for your considerateness will be your reward! - 150 Topics

ACCESS_FORUM_NAMEWord Games and Challenges
Here's where you can set a challenge or invite other Wordwizard members to take part in a word-related game of some kind.
To stop things getting too confusing, it's probably best to create a separate thread for each new game or challenge. - 45 Topics
