"I sincerely apologize for the abrupt manner in which this letter is reaching you dear Charlotte. My luck has been dwindling since I took the train south for Madagascar. My pockets remain solitary in their empty state but my mind wanders profusely. I am determined in the strangest way to collect the item of which my desire is fixed upon. Do remember me as the holidays will soon pass and my presence shall be in spirit. I have enclosed what small amount of currency I have collected as my journey continues. Please use it to your likeness. I have found a most delectable recipe for lemon tarts that I have scantily written on the reverse of this envelope. Do excuse my poor script as this letter is being composed on a forgotten mahogany bench somewhere in an illegible city. I send my love to Haim as well." Adieu, W.H.

The following story is the result of a game I played with a fellow writer, a fan of Fantasy and Manga. Basically, I offered to email him the beginning of a story. He would write the next part and send it back to me. I would write the next part, send it, and so on. But he didn't have enough time to take part in this little game. I then suggested that we write a story in the form of a serial and send the parts to each other by e-mail, once a week, for two months. My plan was to turn it into a summer mini-series. Caught up in the story, this attempt lasted through autumn, and winter, and was finished in spring. So, my first thanks go to you, Jeremy. I'd also like to thank the most diligent critic of my writing: Renault. Your corrections and comments were very relevant and were a great help. I hope that I will, at long last, be able to buy you a drink and discuss it with you face to face. As we haven't seen each other for more than five years, we probably won't even recognise one another anymore. Through my writing I have had the privilege of meeting a lot of different people, from all walks of life, but mostly waiters and waitresses in the (far too) numerous Brussels cafés, Exki, Pain Quotidien, and others, where I write, as well as the hotel staff in the Novotel, where I was living. I thank all of you for your kindness and the interest you showed in my stories. Writing is a solitary process, but has its rewards. I wish you all, through your reading, a life full of dreams and adventure.
