The Sideline Strength — What Fits. What Fortifies

As you explore the concordance, you’ll begin to notice two groups — the A-team and the B-team. The A-team consists of the words that clearly align vertically with the letters of the word you’re building. They fit naturally; they’re your primary connection.

But don’t overlook the B-team. These are the words that don’t quite fit the Vertiwords™ format yet still carry weight and meaning. Instead of discarding them, set them aside — on the sideline, so to speak. They have a role as they deepen and fortify the A-team context, richness and wisdom. Give them place and write them off to the side.

After all, if you hadn’t been searching for the A-team, you might never have noticed the B-team at all.

That’s part of the fun of building the ‘team’ — and the concept of Vertiwords™.
