Over the summer, I started writing letters to people I admired. One of them was Sandra Cisneros, an amazing writer. In the mail today, along with the Netflix and a package I ordered online, was this letter from Ms. Cisneros.

I recognized the handwriting (I have a signed copy of The House on Mango Street) and started doing little cartwheels in my heart. It's a beautiful letter -- not only did she read my letter, she was affected by it.

My favorite sentence: "In the meantime, I wish you creativity." What a gorgeous statement. She's so polished and beautiful. This makes me want to write.

You can find me walking on sunshine (ooh ooh) for the rest of the day.
