You give away too much my dear friend...dare I call you that...you never know into who's hands your letter might fall.
In my own humble way, although my costume may not have been perfectly period, I blended in well enough to go undetected by you, a fact that I am more then tickled by.
So away we go, you on your path, I on mine each attempting to find the truth before our allotted time runs out.
May the best man win...however loosely that phrase might have to be interpreted.

The Rules, such as they are
The game of letters is a simple one; two or more authors write back in forth in character. There's usually a reason why they must write to each other instead of actually meeting in person, but that's a reasonable enough challenge given the era of Twitter and text.
Since we're all fond of different genres, it's also reasonable to suppose that more than one set of stories will start to take shape. Tag your stories with a title and the names of the characters involved and it will be easier to find story threads and add to them.
I'm going to be tweaking the site periodically to better suit the needs of the active authors. Feedback the change you want to see in the world.
Lastly but far from being leastly, this is supposed to be a fun exercise to get brain cells vibrating and fingertips tapping. Don't take it too seriously, don't take it at all personally, just wax your purple prose and take it for a spin.
