Juliana Hatfield has decided to sell a handwritten letter sent to her from Kurt Cobain, a choice she’s written about for the Talkhouse. The note is short but essentially thanks her for writing the song “Nirvana,” which Hatfield says is “about my big love for Nirvana’s first album, specifically for the song ‘Negative Creep’ which had inspired me so much.”

Cobain also apologizes for “snubbing” Hatfield at a post-show meet-and-greet, something he blames on being “disoriented because of all the classic after show meet and greet grossness that goes on.” Here is the note in full below:

In her own essay, Hatfield explains why she is willing to part with the letter. (And why she might not.)
