Dear Humorous Episodes,

Thank you for turning up instead of, you know, an actual plot. I think you can tide me through until at least chapter ten.

Dear Everyone in the NaNo,

Sorry in advance for the murderous spies who are due to turn up in chapter ten. I was, er, bored?

Dear Me,

What the hell are you doing writing this novel? It is going to turn out Even Sillier Than Last Year's. You have a Stupid Face.

Contemptuous regards,
Ellie
