Dear Jane,

I truly hope you are okay. Please let me know if you’re okay. I’m very worried as I know you were ill the last time I received your letter by post, but that was over a week ago. I have sent you letters and poems since then, of which I understand you might be too tired or busy to respond to, yet I am concerned why it’s been so long. I am worried about your physical health, my dear friend.

I hope in between your rest you are making beautiful art. I hope you are feeling inspired and playing the piano, and letting yourself breathe.

I miss you, Jane. I love you, my dear friend. I am embracing you even through the huge distance between us.

Please write me back, whenever possible.

Love, Edward

    Hi Melissa, I find this structure really interesting! I might just pinch it! Hahah. I live in Australia so I’m not sure how big the Australian author John MARSDEN was internationally, but he would often create whole books (in novel format) for teenagers that were letters back and forth between characters that would gradually allow us into their world, sometimes with a twist. Of course there are always letters in those old gothic romances too.😊

  • Hey, Edward, that was Beautiful📝💖😊✨
