Hi Oxide Gallery,

Sounds cool --- an art exhibition based on miniatures! Dollhouses have always fascinated me, as well as making teeny tiny paper cranes out of scraps of paper. I would totally submit something to your exhibition, except I live in Boston, and I won't be able to present my artwork in person per your guidelines.

It was in fact my alter ego (also named Casey Williams, only she lives in TX) who signed up for this email list, not me. I think she's just mad that I signed up for Gmail way back in the day and got to use our shared name.

It would be helpful if you could let my alter ego know that she has been signing up her email address incorrectly.  I would, except the only contact info I have for her is my own. I tried messaging a Casey Williams in TX on Facebook, but she claims not to be the one.

Here are the things I know about her that may help you identify her:

• Her name is the same as mine (Casey Williams)
• She attends multiple Christian Churches (I think she's trying a few out)
• She is very much against gay marriage
• She has offered to host a bible study group for Moms, so I think she has kids
  
• She attends the dentist regularly
• She may be a teacher, as she attended the Educators' Cultural Event a few weeks ago
• She won a free membership to the Galveston Modern Art Museum
  

Let me know your thoughts!

Thanks,
Casey

PS. Check out these miniature people on food artistic photos! Maybe they live near TX.
PPS. I think it's ironic you used a HUGE font to announce the miniature art theme. :-)
