I'm trying to get my letter writing badge, but if can never think of any thing to say in them.
Does anyone have any ideas? What do you write in your letters?.
Any help would really be appreciated. Thnx
 
Just type in one random letter and send it. (But if it is the first letter you send that villager, make sure to write a good letter.)
 
Write as if your best friend has moved country and fill it with meaningful words. Although it's pointless, it gives a lot of satisfaction to be able to write a good letter.
 
I usually make up something. Example to Bones:

"Let me know if you ever want to go peach pickin'! We can whip up some sweet treats. Just give me a holler! See you soon, lazy dog!"

Then I attach furniture I want them to have. This usually gets me a return present, too. c:
 
I do the same thing as Ettienne. :'D Write about what present you're sending them, or write about your day. I've heard some people write song lyrics or just gibberish in them.
 
Gotta reach the final line on the paper every time...


"Hi Phoebe, thanks for the pink tulip, we only use black and orange flowers here but it was a sweet thought! Please accept this blue vase that Walt gave me as I hate it."

"Dear Pango, sorry to see you're ill. I thought you might like this lovely clock. Actually, no, it's hideous and won't match anything you own, but Gayle gave it to me and I have to get rid of it somehow."

"Dear Quillson, sorry to hear you're moving out. If you could see your way to sending me a pic when you go, that would be neat HINT HINT. Here's a parquet floor I didn't want."

"Dear Barold, I've got one more piece of paper left and you drew the short straw. Hope you like this durian. The post office won't mind me posting these, right?"

These are all so cute! I always write until the last line too.. c: I like to write about why I like each of them, and what PWP's the town will be working on next... I always send Fang letters about clothes because he seems to hang around in Able Sisters a lot... I think he likes Sable, hehe ^-^
 
I usually tell my villagers lame jokes with puns, related to their species if I can.
It's for personal giggles!
 
I tell them about what happened in my day, send them clothes or furniture I'd like to see them use, and then tell them why to use it, or talk about how cute they are. It really doesn't matter what you say, as long as the grammar and spelling is correct. Also, try to write a long letter all the way to the end...I think that impresses them.
 
If i'm feelin lazy (which is a lot) i just write a bunch of ily's
Other times i'll write a cute lil message haha
 
I usually describe how awesome the animal I send the letter to is, or I write something else random. For example: "Are you excited for the new Smash Bros. game? Do you want to play it with me?"
XD
 
I'm the ******* that usually just writes "Ay qurl" "how u doin" "ilu bb" and then sends it without anything attached.

I'm a mean mayor. I should really take better care of my villagers. >_>;
 
I usually buy something for my villagers so I have something to talk about. Like I bought Kevin a basketball hoop and I told him I'd school him out on the b-ball court. ^^
 
It depends. My first letters are boring "Welcome to {Town}! If you have any questions, don't hesitate to come find me. I hope you enjoy living here." If I'm giving them a present, I'll write something like "I saw this and I thought it'd look great in your house/you'd look cute in it! I hope you having a great day *star or music note*"

Every so often I'll write a letter just because I'm bored, and it'll be some lame chatter like the kind they send in theirs. Stuff like "Did you see the stars last night? They were gorgeous!" or "What do you think of apples? I think they're delicious but {Neighbor} doesn't think so."

I'm very bad at letters, but I try.
 
wwritin about your day or usin letters as a diary is such a great idea
its nice because most of the time (if not all the time) they reply back and its a really nice feelin

Unless it's for a specific thing like they just moved in, or they asked a question or wrote something interesting enough for me to think of a reply to, I always write the same thing "Hi ___! How are you? Thank you for the letter (and gift (if they sent a gift))! It's great to hear from you (or, thank you for thinking of me)!
See you around town!"
If they send me a letter thanking me for a previous letter, or for visiting their house or something I don't respond because I feel like then they will send me another thank you, and I will have to reply to that and then they will reply again and it will be endless.
But if they send me a random gift or "hi, how are you?" letter I always respond.

If they showed me letters besides the first one like previous games I would make it like a diary! It would be cool to see stuff I wrote months ago!
