NOTES:

I had sent to Rashard back at the tail end of 2023, but didn’t hear back from him. One of many recent discouraging recent TTMs.

Joe’s package of kindness couldn’t have arrived at a better time. I was having a really tough month. A complete series of setbacks… trying to fix problems and just watching it all disintegrate in front of me. Some weeks, the days are all just a blur, taking care of everything the best I could, leaving me less time than I’d like to pursue my hobbies.

It’s nice to be thought of from time to time…. Keeps me going.

NOTES:

Digging through some of those failures I had over the last few years, I decided to try another address for Matt. It took me a little digging but I found one I thought that matched and sent it out.

To my surprise about two months later he sent this card back signed. As an added bonus he put art (well technically fleurons) all over the front and the back of the card, and as you see a crown on himself and horns as well.

Matt also sent me a nice note, and inscribed the card as ‘1/1’ on the back. Bravo Matt. Bravo. Great sense of humor sir!
