In fact ignore all people named Marpel. The name sounds like a chewing gum flavor. The type of gum that loses its flavor faster than Fruit Stripe.

We just had to read his/ her post, picking apart every aspect of your blog with what I imagine is an evil glint in his/ her eye that would probably remind us of the Devil! The better solution would be for Marple to swear off reading your blog, and tell all his friends about how awful it is! Of course, then they would secretly flock to your post to see what all the fuss is about. Lol! Trade one bad apple for a bushel of good ones ( if he/she knows that many apples.)

I sincerely apologize that you were offended by my blog post, and that we are not artists who share the same sense of humor. I am also sorry that you feel that white people suffer from stereotypes, and that you expected journalism from my blog.

best,
Leah Nanako Winkler
Playwright, Artist, Friend
