Dear Joss--

Thank you for Buffy the Vampire Slayer. It's... well, I could go on at length. I often do. But I'm happy that I finally got around to watching the adventures of Buffy, Willow, Xander, and Giles.

I'm writing fiction again thanks to one of them in particular, and that's been working out well for me. So, you know, nice work!
