How to write letters!
How to write letters for any occasion
Okay, so you've got a letter to write. You've got to get it off quickly. How do you go about it? Here's how to go about it, quick and dirty and easy-like.
1. Decide in one sentence what you're trying to convey. Almost every letter is about one thing. You love someone. You want a raise. You want a job. Whatever it is, burn it into your head and make sure that every sentence you write contributes to his overall message.
2. Start broadly, and then get specific. State your intentions as early as possible. If you want a job, say so. If you love someone, say so. There's room for elaboration later on, but give your reader teh gist of what you're saying.
3. Get specific. Now that you've created your introduction, use the meat of the letter to get your point across.
4. Close it out. Use the last paragraph to sum up what you said.
Your letter should take this general form:
*Introduction* (Usually one paragraph)
*Body, or "meat"* (Can be one paragraph. Can also be a million paragraphs.)
*Conclusion* (Usually one paragraph)
