WHEN TO SEND A HANDWRITTEN NOTE
A handwritten note is the most appreciated form of communication, especially when we are so inundated with digital texts, emails and ads. Here are a few reasons to pick up your pen:
- Thank you for a dinner party or overnight stay
- Thank you for a favor when you return something you borrowed
- Thank you for a job interview
- To congratulate someone on the birth of a baby, graduation, promotion, or a special achievement
- To acknowledge a celebration: birthday, wedding, anniversary
- As invitations
- To stay in touch
- To send condolences on the loss of a loved one
- To apologize for a mix-up or mishap
The most important things to remember when writing a note are to be sure your hand writing is legible, and to double-check the address and make sure you've written it clearly.
