While
we were searching for a fitting name to frame our stories, Jane stumbled across
a picture she had taken a year ago. The sunset view of the oldest ferris wheel
in the world set our thinking gears into motion: Watching the wheel turn
in front of our mind's eye, we saw different passenger boxes pass us by,
gaining momentum in a motion of perpetual rise and fall which always presented
a new view to its passengers.
We wished to capture the same essence of innovation and zing in the stories we would publish in our blog categories. Loving a good alliteration, we opted for the name Wheels of Words instead of the more blunt version of Boxes of Words or Word Boxes. Besides if we were of a more philosophical bend, we could argue that Wheels of Words goes well with wheel of life which commonly stands as a symbol for eternity. However, what really had us sold was the fact that we could shorten it to WoW. That just about summed up our feelings in that moment!
