Dear Vishnu
How has life been treating you? I am writing you this letter to tell you how proud I am of you. I read your novel and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Well done!
The speech and the flow in which it is written is commendable. I really liked your choice of words. I know that most of your books are inspired from actual life experiences, and this book clearly demonstrates how committed and hard-working you’ve been. It is doing absolute justice to what you’ve gone through and how well you have handled it.
My friend, since you left for Bangalore to pursue your writing career, we have drifted apart, unfortunately. I hope we can start a correspondence here and meet soon one day.
Hope you fulfill your dreams. Remember, sky’s the limit.
Yours lovingly

Dear Muskan
My happiness knew no bounds when I got to know that you have topped your school and achieved your dream. I felt so pleased that I wish I were there to congratulate you personally.
The result has proved that hard work, determination, and perseverance bring good results. You were so laborious and passionate about it. I know you were very nervous too, but I was always very confident that you would come out with flying colors. I apologize that I couldn’t even attend the celebration party despite my wishes.
Hope to see you soon. Please be encouraged and continue your hard work. Your future is very bright. My parents and elder sister have sent lots of love and heartiest congratulations.
With lots of love and best wishes.
Yours lovingly

Dear Mrs. Johnson,
I am writing to tell you that I am having some trouble writing my term paper. I can’t seem to narrow down my topic to something that will fit in the right paper length.
When I try to support the thesis of the paper, I have too many ideas about how to do that. I am wondering if you could spend a few minutes with me sometime soon to talk about the paper. If that won’t work, could I email you about my problem?
I feel really discouraged about the term paper. I appreciate you taking the time to consider my request.
Sincerely,
Adrian
