Easiest would be to write a function setNewLetters (choose whatever name) in your script.js that sets the value for you.

// in script.js
export function setNewLetters(newValue) {
  if (!newValue) return;
  newLetters = newValue;
} 

So you can then call this function in your event listeners and update your variable this way. Skips passing values back and forth, back and forth.

Thanks for the insight!

Didn't know you can call the functions both ways. Guess this will save me some time stumbling through tutorials 😜
