A Riddle

:-)

The dedication in my novel, LOOKING GLASS FRIENDS, is a clue to two. So is my pen name. Have any of you figured it out?

THE DEDICATION:
"For the first one in the anagram."

MY PEN NAME:
"E. L. Neve"

CLUE:
E. L. Neve is a clue to two...
From real love letters this story grew.

Do you see the answer? I've posted it at the end of this post.

ANSWER:

Letter writing involves 2 people. Or rather 1 + 1. Or...11. So now you've figured it out, right?

SPELLING IT OUT:

E. L. Neve is an anagram of 11. Go ahead... jumble the letters ELNEVE and you'll get ELEVEN.
