It's me Cam!I just wanted to tell you that I've looked through your Life Book.You've written some fantastic stuff. I adored the bit about yourfoster parents and their River of Tears - it showed a lot ofimagination.<strong>TRACY</strong>: Are you just saying that, 'cos you feel sorry for me? You better not -'cos I don't care.CAM: I know.<strong>TRACY</strong>: No you don't. I'm the one stuck in here, not you. I bet you're noteven a proper writer. Writers don't bite their nails.
