<p class="wp-block-paragraph">You probably didn&#8217;t know it, but <em>the</em> stationery resource for the 21st century just dropped. Meet <em> <a href="https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/607560/how-to-write-a-letter-by-chelsea-shukov-and-jamie-grobecker/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><em>How to Write a Letter: Find the Right Words for Every Occasion</em></a><em>,</em> </em>the newest entry in Penguin Random House&#8217;s über-polished How To series.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Co-author Chelsea Shukov visits The Paper Fold to show you how not to just add polish to your correspondence, but to truly and authentically connect with those you love with letters that truly reflect you. Since Chelsea and her <a href="https://sugarpaper.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Sugar Paper</a> co-founder Jamie Grobecker have helped their clientele do exactly this in their branded LA boutiques for some time, they are uniquely equipped to pen this sturdy little magnum opus. As such, expect this blush pink, gold-foiled guide to be marked up and dog-eared as it is referenced again and again, as life circumstances demand.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Since 2003, Sugar Paper&#8217;s upscale stationery offerings have wowed clients around the globe — ;and their ongoing office collaborations with Target are the stationery stuff of legend. ;As Chelsea sagely points out, the traditional rules of etiquette and card-sending were developed to help us connect during life&#8217;s milestones and challenges, but if they don&#8217;t feel authentic, they need to be revisited and revised.</p><div class="inline-post clearfix"><div class="see-also byline">See also</div><div id="block-wrap-43329" class="block-wrap-native

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Jamie and Chelsea have reviewed every last one with the proverbial red pen, keeping what works and tweaking what doesn&#8217;t. You may be surprised to see their 21st century take, starting with their first golden rule: Embrace your handwriting. Plus we talk salutations and send offs, why gushing over our favorite people is best done in letter form —and how the meaning of every last missive changes over time.</p>
