Dear Andre,

Up to my armpits in the serial—installment seven^[1] is getting done. Only one more to go. The trouble is it will have to be about twenty thousand words long. So this is just to say that the agreement we made with Leonard Russell is all right with me. Hope to have a full book to show you soon.

Best to Diana,

Norman
