DDV of Belgium,
Hello, I received your letter of 27 Sept87, It is nice to hear from you again. Thank you for the Force Mental magazine it also arrived. While I haven't read it all I will reserve my comments about it, but I will address some of the things you mention in your letter.
I get the impression when your writing to me its in a condescending tone on me. Why, I don't know. I assume your making a value judgement on me based on what you have read about me, and I hate to tell you that you are wrong. I am sure being in the public eye yourself you have found out what the media has done to you or your group, its their opinion and there right since they are printing it to sell. In my case if they told the whole story or told the truth I guess it would be a dull life, so they hype my character up to match what they are trying to do to me.
Now I don't feel anyone is better then me nor am I better then anyone elso I don't agree with all that you have to say but thats what makes me different. I don't assume anything of you nor do I pass a value judgement on why you wrote to me nor what your into. Like you, I am interested in learning about people and I find its interesting to learn about people by writing to them, I guess thats why I write back to so many. You certainly have a right to your opinion as I do to mine, but I found you can learn more from a person by keeping an open mind and learning more about them before passing judgement on them.
Let me go over a few things in your letter, I am sorry you don't like your name, but I just wanted to know what the letters stood for. You prefer DDV thats fine with me. By the way, Lux Interior did give me his real name in the same way I asked you. His stage name is what he likes to be called so thats what I use for him in the past four years.
What are you trying to say with the sentence: "I hate personification of heroes I doubt LUX INTERIOR uses his real name"? He is no hero nor am I in fact he has become a pen-pal friend.
Since you read the book Killer clown I have enclosed a critic review of the book just so you don't think its just my opinion that the book is garbage. When I say fantasy in the books with five written about me now none of them seem to use the facts which are public records from the courts. Plus they all steal from each other using the same fantasy theory. I don't recall reading in Killer clown that I planned to escape to Belgium but it wouldn't surprise me. I may have mention Belgium and they took it out of context as I have some family living in Belgium, Denmark, and England, Even Australia, my cousins.
You say you like and dislike Belgium, I guess with it being politically and culturally divided it has never been linguistically united. And your country is predominant Roman Catholic religion, does that mean you are too? By the way Cutting trees is illegal to cut here to unless they are on your own property.
I see you misread some things in my letter or have formed the wrong opinion, you can check from my first letter to you. But I never said I sold five hundred paintings so you assume I was rich from that. I have painted over 500 in the past five years, and I wish they were
