Tone & Structure
Use consistent and formal salutations (e.g., 'Dear Annie' instead of 'Dear Annie!'). Avoid using exclamation points in such contexts.
Structure
Organize your ideas more clearly across paragraphs. Begin with explaining why you can't come, then detail your reason in a new paragraph, and suggest meeting again in a final paragraph.
Grammar & Punctuation
Check your grammar and punctuation. Avoid run-on sentences and ensure proper use of commas and periods. For instance, '...let you know that I'm not able to come to your party. Unfortunately, I'm...',
Spelling & Capitalization
Correct spelling and capitalization errors. For example, 'vacation' instead of 'vaccation', and avoid random capitalization of words within sentences.
Closing
End your letter with a suitable closing, such as 'Looking forward to...,' followed by your name. Ensure the sign-off is formal and matches the tone of the letter.

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.
