LETTERS THE HUMAN TOUCH<br > or centuries, letters have been indispensable in doing business<br > and keeping in touch with friends. But in recent years our methods<br > of writing them have changed dramatically. We have gone from<br > manual to electric typewriters, from self-correcting typewriters to<br > word processors; each advance has introduced new levels of speed<br > and economy. Letters are now made in an instant--copy after copy,<br > without a single typo. They can be whisked around the globe<br > electronically, completely bypassing the post office.<br > But while we have concentrated on the speed of producing our letters,<br > we have often ignored their quality. Companies invest in sophisticated<br > equipment, only to churn out hundreds of letters that lack any spark of<br > originality. Even the name word processor is suggestive: we no longer<br > write messages, we process words. You can almost hear the machinery<br > clanking.<br > Better Letters is written on the premise that what you write is important;<br > that in the rush to automate, you should not lose sight of the end<br > product--your letter--and its potential impact on your reader.<br > Robert Louis Stevenson stated the case succinctly:<br > The difficulty is not to write, but to write what you mean; not to<br > affect your reader, but to affect him precisely as you wish.<br > Writing well takes careful thinking about why you are writing, and<br > then organizing words to achieve your goal. If you turn to letter-<br > writing handbooks for help, you will find that most are badly out of<br > date. Many consist of model letters "for every occasion." An ingenious<br > variety is presented for your use, but how many of us need to write to<br > an undertaker, or to decline an invitation to judge a dog show ? You are<br > told to change a word here and there to make the models fit your own<br > requirements, "without wasting valuable time and effort." I can hear<br > the machinery clanking again visions of model letters, slightly<br > modified but always off target, shuttling back and forth between word<br > processors.<br > Can any model letter express your ideas and affect your reader<br > precisely as you wish? Better Letters assumes that the writer, who<br > nows best why he or she is writing can produce a letter superior to<br >
