One year out and I've barely been able to write a sentence of fiction. But, slowly, I think I'm starting to remember how to do it and eventually, I'll be better at it than I was before Seattle. Because of invaluable advice and encouragement I've received from you and our fellow classmates. Hope you got the T-shirt this weekend. Miss you.

I don't have enough perspective yet. But I hope your depression is productive. And even if we'll never all be in that magical house again, we'll never go back to not knowing each other and not having experienced that bubble either. So I'm okay with that. <br><br>*End Scene* All of this one-year reminiscing stuff is tough. I don't have enough perspective yet. But I hope your depression is productive.

You had better start finding things to enjoy in this life or I'm going to come down there and make you have fun. I understand depression far too well and it's a place you shouldn't be. You know that better than anyone. Sure, you're not in this “perfect” place but what are you doing to create “perfection” where you are now?

I'm sure you've had scenes before… I mean there was something I didn't like about your writing and think it was scenes…
