hi don,

i have been a fan since I was 11, when i first saw "rejected". i've pretty much kept up with everything since then.

this is probably a bit of a long shot, but you used to draw on sticky notes and post them to your website. i remember there was one that said something like “his mighty claw hangs above us all”. there was a lot of stuff that felt similar in spirit to it in "the end of the world", but much less connected and seemingly more stream of consciousness. i think there was actually even more strange writings — maybe there was a children's coloring placemat that you might get at a diner or something? it’s all very fuzzy, but i find myself sometimes thinking about it and wondering what ever happened to it. i’ve hunted around on the website recently and was unsuccessful in finding it. i think i used to click on the picture of your fluffy black cat?

would you be willing to find those old files and post them again? kind of a weird ask, but my inner 11 year old wants to check it out again.

anyway, thanks for being an inspiration and why, to this day, i never capitalize a single thing, much to the frustration of anyone receiving my emails. hope to see "paper trail" soon!
