OPINION

MAY, Judge.

Michael E. Zanussi appeals his convietion of Class A misdemeanor criminal recklessness. 1 He presents three issues for our review:

1. Whether the trial court abused its discretion when it denied Zanussi's motion for continuance one day before his jury trial was to begin;

2. Whether the trial court committed fundamental error when it admitted letters Zanussi wrote while in jail before trial; and

3. Whether the State presented sufficient evidence Zanussi committed Class A misdemeanor criminal recklessness.

We affirm.
