I have to give X points for honesty. Most people would say “I borrowed your car” or “I took your car”, but X gets right to the point. As a writer should.
Sometimes I wonder what Gladys thinks is going on… I mean, the events do sometimes impact her (like this time), but, by and large, she must be perplexed by Writer X’s strange behaviour and total lack of communication.
But then she’s a literary agent. Maybe she has a lot of Writer Xs on her books, and is glad this one’s keeping quiet.
I’m thinking that Gladys IS getting these, too; that it’s going to a blind mailing list that both Gladys and Melanie are on. X doesn’t seem to be angry at Gladys not following through on her sometimes-outrageous requests, after all…
Or maybe Gladys reads File770 and finds out that way?
And thanks to Susan for saving the Hogfather.
Without whom.
Love it. Thanks.

@Steve Wright, that makes sense, too!
