This is a guide to the the letters Alert Readers sent me in 2011. Note that Alert readers often send me the letter they wrote the year before, so there may be some 2010 letters in the 2011 collection. (As of December 12 I had just two, and they are evenly divided.)

The Bucket List: Ruth S., the lieutenant in the Salvation Army who has a tattoo and a pet snake, returns with a creative letter. It has a sad note.

Wikileaks: The O'Brians may put up a good front, but Wikileaks knows what is REALLY going on ... [Ed. Note: hilarious!]

This is one page of over four dozen devoted to Christmas news letters. The main Christmas News Letters page has links to more examples, plus some general guidelines and specific suggestions for writing Christmas news letters. If you have an example, either good or bad, that you'd like to share with the rest of the world, send it to me and I'll add it to these pages.
