Dear Srishti, Hope you're well! I'm very sorry, but I'll not be able to attend your birthday party next week
due to
work commitments. I know I had said earlier that I'd join but unfortunately, some
last
-minute schedule changes at work made me cancel my bus tickets to your place. I got you a really nice sweater from 'Bershka' and I can't wait to see you wearing it. It's in your favourite colour, Blue. I cannot believe that I'm missing your 20th birthday. Perhaps we could video call that day when you're cutting the cake. Hopefully, all your other friends would join

Moreover
, I'll definitely be visiting you next month on the 15th as I took a week off from work already. We can catch up
then
and party like we used to. Please accept my sincere apologies. I wish I could join but next time for sure!
Also
, do send me your birthday pictures by post as soon as you get them. Best wishes, Akshita

Use a variety of complex and simple sentences

You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.

‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.

Examples:

I really want to study but I’m too tired.

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.

If action is not taken soon on climate change, global warming will get worse.
