Miss Backus,
If it makes you feel any better, I have received two additional letters from other Witch Weekly readers, so you are not alone in your pursuits. After having read the ad, thanks to one of my staff, I have a feeling I know where it came from. I feel quite guilty for wasting anyone's time who bothered to write in, so I felt it necessary to respond to each one.
Long story short, your secret is safe with me, your bribe is most delicious, and again, best of luck!
Sincerely,
Q. Honeyduke
