Writing in Role - Sabeana Uthayakumaran

The book The Color Purple consists of letters written by Celie to God. I have chosen to write the next letter after my section in the novel.

Dear God,

Mr.______ is acting funny. I ast what I had done wrong but he ain’t answering and beat me hard to do my chores. I think he saw me and Shug together. He looks like he has something in mind. But I don’t care. Shug taught me to care no more. I know Shug and Mr._____ are in love. I want love too. Anyways she cares about me too she says it in her songs. I wonder what Nettie would want me to do. I miss her haven’t seen her in long. She has and Shug Avery is the only people I love and care about. I am writing letters for her now so she knows I am always here. Mr._____ said he will send them to her for me. The only nice thing he has done in long time. But I have not got any back from Nettie. I think she dead because she would have sent a letter to me for sure I am her sister. But just seeing Shug is not enough, I need my sister. Everyone feels home but me. I am still dumb and ugly, even Shug Avery thought so. But that is the least of my problems; I need to find out how Nettie is.
