I wrote out letters on behalf of 3 other people last year and one on behalf of Owen. I wrote the letters as if I were them and used their return addresses. The goal was for people close to me to receive surprise gifts and for Owen to receive pet supplies, but none of the letters were answered. I found it odd that none of the letters were chosen. I didn't write one from myself. Maybe this year, I'll try to be someone else's Santa in a different way and adopt a letter.

[Sei Soldier]
