I was amazed and touched by the honour you seem to want to bestow on me, and I find it difficult to express my feelings. You are quite right in assuming that it is very difficult to pursue artistic amitions while being constantly involved in daily work. For example, I am composing a Cello Concerto and have promised to write a Violin Concerto, an my conducting commitments make it almost impossible to find adequate time for thought and peace and composition []" - Der Schriftsteller Winfried Bornemann (geb. 1944) ist bekannt für Bücher mit seinen Juxbriefen an Unternehmen, Prominente und Behörden samt deren Antwortschreiben. Das erste Buch Zu Schade zum Wegradieren", das er zusammen mit seinem Schwager verfasste, enthält neben humorvollen Zeichnungen nur wenige dieser Briefe. Für das Buch Bornemanns lachende Erben" (1985) schrieb Bornemann unter dem Pseudonym Carola von Gaestern" verschiedene Prominente an, um diesen das Erbe jener fiktiven Witwe eines reichen Unternehmers in Aussicht zu stellen. 1988 erschien sein Buch Glanz & Gloria. Eine Brief-Aktion mit internationalen Stars".
