Synopsis

Covering 625 distinct categories, this hands-on guide provides nearly a thousand ready-to-use letters for every conceivable situation -- from seeking out new business to collecting debts to extending congratulations. To compose the perfect letter in a snap, all a stymied writer needs to do is find the appropriate topic in the index, read the brief lead-in comments, and follow the blueprint. Now including a CD-ROM for the first time in this third edition, adapting model missives is even quicker, freeing writers from the tedious task of re-keying.This targeted, user-friendly collection includes expertly crafted letters for: -- Requesting favors, from a deadline extension to an extended stay with a relative. -- Saying "no", politely but firmly, to sundry pleas, demands, and invitations. -- Selling and fund-raising to get bottom-line results. -- Seeking employment, and reprimanding and terminating employees. -- Making and responding to complaints with impact. For writers determined to draft from scratch, author Harold Meyer offers crash courses in "How to Do It", with step-by-step outlines, interest-arousing openers, and clincher closers for each letter group. Sweeping in scope and eminently useful, Lifetime Encyclopedia of Letters is the ultimate reference for writing it right, whatever the occasion.
