I've invented a new way to send letters to the people who you wish would support you every day - The Midnight Technique, inspired by Jacqueline Wilson's book 'Midnight'. I've decided to write letters to CBBC, Factory, Ludo and the National Autistic Society the same way the main character of the book, Violet, wrote to her idol and creator of the Fairy Books, Casper Dream, every single day. I used to read this book in school, and I was intrigued by Violet's interactions with everything around her, including her babysitter's Domino's Pizza meal, her childhood, her early interactions with her elderly next door neighbour and how she had tea and cake while reading the fairy stories each day - before the squatters moved in, the Smokey Fairy and the fact that it was banned because it was encouraging children to smoke (I don't approve of it) and Violet's new friend inviting her for a little gypsy dinner at her house, with what I call 'white cheese and wine'. Hmmm. Sounds tempting to try. I hope it tastes of goat's cheese. I may have to look it up when I have the time.
