Jane Smith

Anytown,

Dear Jane,

How are you? I hope this letter finds you well. I wanted to catch up with you and see how things have been going since we last spoke.

I’ve been busy with work, but I was also trying to make time for my hobbies. I’ve taken up painting again and I’ve been enjoying it a lot. I’ve also been trying to get back into running. How about you? What have you been up to lately?

Let me know if you have any plans for the upcoming weekend. I’d love to grab lunch or coffee and catch up in person.

Take care,

John

I hope this letter finds you well. I’m writing to let you know that I’ll be in town next week and I would love to catch up with you.

I’ll be staying at the Hilton hotel on Main Street and I’ll have some free time on Wednesday afternoon. Would you be available to grab a cup of coffee together?
