Letters I will never send

I actually rather like the letter format. It allows you to say things to people without giving them any opportunity to talk back to you, so they can't interrupt or misunderstand before they're done reading the thing. Also, it allows you to talk to people and then destroy the letter without them ever actually reading it. I know, I could just have a conversation with someone and then wipe their memory (well, if they're not a Q, anyway), but that seems like cheating.
( The great thing about sending letters to dead people is, they're dead, so you don't even have to go to the effort of not sending it. )
( Maybe I'll actually send this one... and maybe not )
( Definitely not sending this one. I think. )
