Those who know me well are aware of my interest in letter writing,  business or personal. I still get a flutter of excitement when a personal letter drops through the post. Sadly email doesn’t hold the same thrill factor but the I do like the fact that it enables us all to keep in touch to a much greater level, and that is a good thing. When delivering communication courses I always include a section on written communication with reference to writing the content in the style of the reader. Lynn Gaertner-Johnston the founder of Syntax training has written a lovely article about just that - taking into account your reader when you write. Lynn has included some great tips on how to recognise different styles which is really easy to follow and interesting too!  I know which style I fall into

Take a look at it here and maybe you can spot your own style. Feel free to get back to me to let me know how much you enjoyed it: http://www.syntaxtraining.com/articles_biz_writing1.html
