Dear Editor,
Is Simmon single? When will he have his first book signing? Does he like apples or plums? I bet he’s a plum person. Anyway, I loved his debut work The Tidal King, the character of Sebastian “Sebas” Montgomery was a delight. I haven’t read such a captivating high seas adventure in years. From his struggles as a poor orphan on the streets of Breakwater Bay to the gathering of his crew “The Loose Cannon'' and their whimsical adventures together, it just painted a lifestyle I thought only my dreams contained. For the last 100 pages, I just could not put it down! When Qora and Aznar were turned to stone and Sebastian was left to duel the Tidal King to the death, my heart skipped one too many beats. I don’t think I’ve cried as much as when First Mate Sam put the Coral Crown on top of Captain Montgomery, the new Tidal King. I am your biggest fan now, and I hope you write another book!

Dear Ms. Claribel Swansan,
I’m afraid Simmon is married; married to his work, that is. He certainly appreciates all the adoring fans like you, though. It was wonderful news when the accolades came in from all different lands. Neither of us were expecting it, but I am certain my brother will continue to create wonderful new lands and stories for all of his readers. I wasn’t supposed to leak this yet, but there is a first draft of the sequel to The Tidal King that I received yesterday. It is quite the followup, and I look forward to seeing how you all enjoy it when it gets released in a few months.
Glad to hear from you,
Gaius Lavendale
