Yeah! yeah!  Everyone go see! http://www.theletterbox.org/

I started mine "Dear Ms. Rowling" because I figured I might as well err on
the side of courtesy.  It got much less coherent after that <g>  I don't
think it matters all that much, though, and "Dear Joanne" certainly wouldn't
be wrong!

Heehee... me too.  I wrote a 3/4-page letter (otherwise my fangirlish
ramblings would have become very boring), and I wrote five drafts of the
darn thing before I was satisfied with it!

Melissa, who is generally obsessive in a non-evil way (no, really!
completely non-evil!)
