    About this ebook

    A letter to Santa. A letter to the Easter Bunny. A letter to the Sandman? 

    Who writes a letter to the Sandman?

    Me, that's who. Willa Shisbey, nerd extraordinaire.

    I'm back with another installment of Willa's Window, my column in the Lifestyle section of my local newspaper. This time, I'm sharing my letters, including those my dad unearthed in our garage.

    Welcome to my nightmare.

    Not only will you read about me bartering with the Tooth Fairy, but you'll also take a gander at the ridiculous Santa lists I wrote over the years, and the long-winded, slightly melodramatic letters I wrote to the characters and figures we all admire.

    But wait, there's more!

    In addition to the lame letters, you'll have the pleasure of reading the backstories surrounding my childhood letters.This tell-all, if you will, is my homage to wonderfully wild, brave, confident, creative, understanding, and compassionate characters who paved the way for nerdy girls like me and shined a light on what truly matters in life. Without them, I don't know who I'd be or what I would've done. What I know is they helped me, a self-professed nerd, navigate the difficulties of life, family, school, and everything in between.
