Communication is a natural need for any person. This fully applies to writing letters. Today you rarely see a person writing a letter with pen and paper, but the ability to write interesting letters has not lost its importance. Indeed, does it really matter whether the addressee receives the message in an envelope or by email? The main thing is that he was interested in reading your message.
Instructions
Step 1
When writing a letter, always remember and consider who exactly you are contacting. The style of writing a letter to a friend or close relative, of course, may differ from a message to a business partner with an offer of possible cooperation. In communicating with people close to you, you can allow yourself a great openness and sincerity, but in a purely business letter you can fully show your creative abilities.
Step 2
Please write with optimism. When addressing people close to you in a letter, use warm words that for some reason we are all embarrassed to pronounce in a personal conversation. Start letters as if the addressee is your interlocutor and is one step away from you. Imagine that you are just continuing a conversation you have interrupted for a while. “What a shame, the tea is already cold. And I was just about to tell you about a funny incident that happened at work …"
Step 3
The degree of frankness of the letter should depend on how much you allow it in live communication with this person. Respect the confidentiality of your correspondence. Do not try to write and send personal letters when you have a free time at work. An awkward situation can arise if you are caught doing this. Or be prepared to cover the text with your hand.
Step 4
If suddenly it does not occur to you what to write the promised letter about, do not be embarrassed. Open any magazine or news resource and you are sure to find a suitable topic. Share with the invisible interlocutor your thoughts and feelings regarding any significant event for both of you. Let the letter be a little emotional, just be careful in expressing your emotions. Don't overuse exclamation marks. If you are writing an email, it is appropriate to communicate your emotions by inserting the appropriate smiley symbol along the way.
Step 5
Do not be too lazy to insert a couple of jokes, anecdote or a humorous poem into your letter. An inquiring insert can give the letter an attractiveness and intimacy, for example: “Really, great?”, “Not a bad idea, agree?”, “How do you like this turn of events?”. This manner of writing will create a feeling of involvement in the subject of the letter and direct participation in an interesting dialogue in the interlocutor.
