Quick Tips Before You Write
- Read it out loud once. If it sounds like a stranger wrote it, rewrite the opening.
- Use their name in the first line - it instantly makes any message personal.
- End with a forward-looking line: a plan, a wish, or a promise.
- Keep the middle short. Long cards get skimmed; three sincere lines get reread.
