[A typewritten letter.  It reads:

How has the turn of the century affected you?  Are you excited about the new technological opportunities the Century of the Anchovy offers?]

[A letter on slightly distressed lined paper, in scrawled handwriting.  It reads:

Were pretty slow to get new Tecknology out in the Shires so I dont really know about alot of the stuf thats happening.  I think the Clacks is a good idea even if I havnt got to use it much yet becos it means maybe sometime I can talk to my Family even if they live far away and if I went back to Brixhed maybe I coud still talk to Ping too.  They say the first bit of the Undertaking will be done around the time I get out too so maybe I will get to See it and thats Exciting even if I dont really know what it is exactly.]

 [A handwritten letter.  It reads:

If you were an animal, what kind of animal would you be?]

[A letter on slightly distressed lined paper, in scrawled handwriting.  It reads:

Well I wouldnt be a Turkey if thats what you think Im going to say.  Maybe I would be a Dog or Pig which are Smarter than youd think actually becos those are animals that are kind of like People sometimes and they are mostly friendly and usful but some people dont like them and if there around bad people sometimes they bite but if their around good people maybe they dont bite any more.]

 [A handwritten letter.  It reads:

Are there any times you would consider a turning point in your life?  Tell me about them.]

[A letter on slightly distressed lined paper, in scrawled handwriting.  It reads:

Well when I got arrested for One.  If that hadnt happened I wouldnt be writing to you now and I would still have my Farm and my Turkeys.  Also when the Thing that led to me getting arrested happened but I dont think I need to tell you about That becus it was probly in the Papers already.]

 [A handwritten letter.  It reads:

Tell me about your most trusted friend.]

[A letter on slightly distressed lined paper, in scrawled handwriting.  It reads:

I dont really know if I have Friends anymore to tell the truth.  Everybody I knew when I was a Kid I havent seen in Years and Years and all the blokes I used to work with on the Estate are either in the Tanty or Dead and I dont think any of them liked me all that much anyway really.

I guess Corpral Ping is sort of my Friend now tho I mean its kind of wierd for your friends job to be keeping you in Gaol but its not his fault and its not like I knew him from before that anyway.

Also can I say that my Sister Rose is my Friend too?  She writes to me here sometimes and she askd her Husband to go and fetch my Things after I got Arrested so they wouldnt get Stolen and she says shell come visit me for Hogswatch and nobody else says theyll do that for me tho maybe my other Brother’s and Sister’s would if they didnt have Kids and Jobs and Farms and live so far away.]

 [A handwritten letter.  It reads:

What is your favourite colour?]

[A letter on slightly distressed lined paper, in scrawled handwriting.  It reads:

My favurite colour is Green which is the colour of my Favurite Scarf.  One time Lady Rust payed me to tare down some Green wall paper in her Drawring Room and I thougt it was a Shame becos the paper was so Pretty so I took a Piese of it Home with me but then I got real Sick and I had to stay in Bed for a week and a half and when I got better I couldnt find it anymore and Stratford said he burnt it becos Green things are Poison.  He had some strange ideas sometimes]

[A letter on slightly distressed lined paper, in scrawled handwriting.  It reads:

Also today I have drawn a Picture of a Turkey for my Readers in the Ocktarine Grass Country on account of it being theyre Harvest Festival:]

[There is a hand-drawn turkey in the center of the page.  It is more detailed than the kind of turkey you’d draw by tracing around your hand and clearly resembles a real animal viewed in profile, but its body is so round as to be nearly sperical, and its wings are represented by a scrawled squiggle.  It has dark, scribbled-in stripes across its tail and visible wing.]

[The letter continues:

It is a Patricians Palm which you can tell becos of its Stripes]

[A handwritten letter.  It reads:

If you could change one event in your past, what would it be?]

[A letter on slightly distressed lined paper, in scrawled handwriting.  It reads:

Well seeing as how Im curantly in Gaol I would not do the things I did to get myself in Gaol in the first place.  If it had to be one partickular thing that I did or didnt do I guess I wouldve told somebody about what happend sooner cos then maybe less people wouldve got Hurt and I dont know how I couldve stopped it all in the first place cos Stratford was awful hard to stop.  Only I guess that wouldntve stopped me going to Gaol at all becus I am here from the Smugling and not the Other Things that happened becos of the Law being diffrent then or so I am told but I would probly still change the same thing becos if fewer people got hurt that wouldve been the Right Thing to do and I am trying to learn how to to the Right Thing now so maybe I wont have to be lockd up any more.]

[A handwritten letter.  It reads:

What is your happiest memory?]

[A letter on slightly distressed lined paper, in scrawled handwriting.  It reads:

My happyest Memory is the day that I moved into my House in Hangnails becos it was My Own House and nobody elses and I was going to have my own Farm and look after My Self and that made me Proud.  I remember espeshuly when I went to the Fair in Crundells to buy Pots and Pans and Plates and things like that that I didnt need when I lived with Other People when I was a Drover and it made me feel like an Adult which I hadnt really before even tho I was already Twenty One then.  And I liked when I got Picshures to hang on the Wall espeshuly my Poster of all the diffrent Breeds of Turkeys which came inside a Book about Turkey Breeding that I got and it made the Kitchen look less Empty and more like Home to have that on the Wall.]

[A handwritten letter.  It reads:

Are you interested in women, men, both, neither, or something else? ]

[A letter on slightly distressed lined paper, in scrawled handwriting.  It reads:

Well Ive been talking to Corpral Ping about what Im going to do when I get out and how to be Happy and that kind of stuff and he says I should try to practice being Honest and Brave and that if I can do that even when it’s Difficult then I will be OK so I guess I should be Honest mostly I like Women and I want to have a Wife someday if I can find a nice Lady who likes me enouf but I think maybe it would be okay if I met a nice Man too on account of it being OK in Psheudopolis now to marry whoever you want and Ping says its probably OK here too only nobody wants to bother with the Legal stuff so hardly anybodys actually married tecknicly.]

[A handwritten letter.  It reads:

Do you think you’re good-looking?  How much do you care about what you look like?]

[A letter on slightly distressed lined paper, in scrawled handwriting.  It reads:

Well hardly anybodys ever told me I was good looking so I guess Im not, but I dont really care much.  Turkeys dont care if youre Pretty or Ugly as sin.]
