Story
Mr. Write enjoys writing letters and is often alone, writing them to himself.[2][3] He often writes letters to Christine, a woman in Animal Village. She sends him photographs of a different woman, which is a reference to Princess Peach of the Mario series, who he thinks is beautiful.[4]
Once Link brings the Hibiscus to Christine, she asks him to deliver her Letter to Mr. Write. He is extremely happy, so he gives Link the Broom in return.[5][6] He immediately begins composing a response to Christine.[7]
Although he only appeared in Link's Awakening, his counterpart Dr. Left appears in Oracle of Seasons and The Minish Cap.
