Natalie ""Through stupidity and a mass tin ear we killed our children". Chilling parallel w/Pied Piper myth questions the politics of generations!" ]]> <![CDATA[new comment from Natalie]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/28018524 JayeL's review of For the Love of Letters: A 21st-Century Guide to the Art of Letter Writing
by Samara O'Shea

Your review is serendipitous! I read in Abigail Van Buren's Dear Abby column today that she has a letter writing pamphlet which includes examples of thank you and condolance letters, even a love letter! I was thinking after helpnig Leia with Thank You letters that I could use a refresher myself on how to be polite not trite!

Abigail Van Burenwrites that her booklet "How to Write Letters for All Occasions" offers samples that can be adapted and personalized. It can be ordered by sending your name and mailing address, plus a check or money order for $6 (U.S. funds), to Dear Abby, Letters Booklet, P.O. Box 447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447. Shipping and handling are included in the price.

I think I am going to order one today and then decide if I still need for the love of letters! ]]> <![CDATA[Natalie added 'Finch']]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/78198315 Finch (Paperback) by Jeff VanderMeer
