Third Edition.
Includes CD-ROM.
The right words for every occasion, every challenge, every need! 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 you need to do is find the appropriate topic in the index, read the brief lead-in comments, and follow the blue-print!
Now including a CD-ROM for the first time, 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 favours, from a deadline extension to an extended stay with a relative
- Saying "no" politely but firmly, to demands and invitations
- Selling and fundraising to getting bottom-line results
- Seeking employment, and reprimanding or 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.
