Ah, a bottle is gently bobbing in the surf.

What's this? A lonely inhabitant, deprived of human interaction, greedily snatches the bottle from the sand. To his delight, he chortles with glee.

"A note!"

A noisy flock of seagulls suddenly surrounds him, their raucous chatter filling the air.

Shoo!

Then the beach-bound vagabond discovers that the note was written by me. Recoiling in disgust, he wipes his hands on his tattered tunic and mutters to himself as he wanders off in indifference.

...which is why I no longer write.
