Letter to the Readers

Dear Readers,

If you are reading this, chances are you read all of my AUTHORS NOTES at the top of each chapter. If not, here is my cliff-notes version. (if you HAVE been reading skip the bold)

-Dee and Valerie both have FanFiction accounts. Dee's is Diego12191 and Val's is Runya14.

-I have a myspace and the URL is on my FanFiction Profile

-If you reviewed me, I am extremely grateful

-I have been thinking about writing a sequel

Okay, now that THAT is over, I want to tell you that although I have been thinking about a sequel, I don't know exactly what my plot line will be. I know that it will take place about a year after "Ditzy Dorky and Downright Delusional" but I am not sure exactly when it will take place in Naruto. If you have any ideas, feel free to message me on FanFiction, or myspace, and I will take your ideas into consideration.

I also want to emphasize that Kate (me), Valerie, and Dee are all really how they are in the story.

First of all, myself. Because of marching band and drumline, and swimming when I was younger, I have quite a lot of brute force. There is a running joke between some of my friends and myself that you don't want to get on the wrong side of me. I am also fairly hardworking and I learn relatively quickly. English is my best subject, followed by physics and math. In the story I was laid back, strong, hardworking, and friendly, so I feel as if I portrayed myself correctly.

I think that I portrayed Valerie well too. Although she is not in college yet, she does want to go to Miami University in Ohio, and wants to major in Chemistry, which is her best subject. She has a low pain tolerance and is often stubborn when in a bad mood. She, like myself, and also Dee, is in marching band and drumline. Interestingly enough, she does not watch NARUTO, but reads the manga, and she hasn't even read all of THAT yet, so a lot of the time when me and Dee talk about it, she has no idea what's going on. (fun fact: She has attempted to write quite a few Naruto fanfictions in the past, and Dee had to make a list of different weapons for her... she didn't even know what Kunai was)

favorite character: Sasuke

least favorite character: Naruto

Last, but not least, Dee. It was mentioned in chapter 13 that she is a black belt in Aikido and a blue belt in Tai Kwon Do, which is all true. Plus, she has taken kudo and archery, so she can be really dangerous when you make her mad. Also, like in the story, she is very lazy. Her character was portrayed extremely accurately from both of our perspectives. Next year Dee will be going to a catholic high school, but she is jewish. This is depressing because now me and Valerie will be going to a different school than her. :'(. But we will make it work.

favorite character: Shikamaru

least favorite character: Kabuto

Putting my message simply, thank you SOO much for taking the time, and having the patience, to read my story. You have no idea how much I appreciate it. And you should definitely check out Valerie and Dee's stories too.
