The Gecko Edition
I was in Utah last week for a business meeting and my family joined me afterward for some Salt Lake City adventures. There was a pet goldfish in our hotel room and we named him Byron. The kids endeavored to eat a six-scoop brownie sundae. We visited the Utah Natural History Museum, and let me tell you: geckos have amazing feet!

This week’s new additions are all about letters, with 35 new ways to say you’re sorry at ApologyLetters.net and 24 new letters of recommendation at LettersOfRecommendation.net.
Apology Letters
It’s a rare person who never needs to apologize for a business or personal misstep. My site, ApologyLetters.net, makes the process a little easier. I’ve added nearly three dozen sample apology letters to the site, in the categories of: Workplace, Personal, Misbehavior, General, Child, and Business.

There are new work-related letters with sample language apologizing for typos, for getting someone’s name wrong, for procrastinating, for sharing inaccurate information, and several other issues. You’ll also find letters for businesses that need to express regret for a server outage or for staff behavior.

Personal situations call for an “I’m sorry” as well, whether you want to keep a friendship, mend fences, or just smooth over an awkward situation. New letters in this category include apologies for aggressive behavior, false accusations, accidentally damaging someone’s property, making a bad first impression, displaying arrogance, and several other missteps. Other letters address cursing, losing one’s temper, and making a rude comment.

There are now 211 letters at the site, plus articles with advice on how and when to apologize. You’ll want your apology letter to be sincere, so the best approach is to use these letter templates as a jumping off point to writing a message that suits your situation.

All of the letters are free, and download instantly as editable files that you can type into using Microsoft Word and other DOC-compatible programs. Or, simply cut and paste the letter text directly from the site.

Recommendation Letters
There are two dozen new sample letters at LettersOfRecommendation.net. They’re free to download, edit, and use as-is or for inspiration in crafting your own letter.

The new letters of recommendation cover a variety of situations in which one person would recommend another, for personal, educational, or business reasons. Some letters speak to the subject’s character while others focus on professional or scholastic achievement.

There’s a letter from a coach advocating for an athlete, recommendations for employees who have resigned or been terminated, and other variations.

A new category of letter covers “dismissal recommendations,” in which a supervisor recommends that a probationary or temporary employee not be retained.

Besides actual letters of recommendation, I’ve added templates for messages asking someone to write a letter, and, conversely, declining to write a letter.

This round of additions also includes six new articles with tips on letter-writing and related situations. There’s advice on how to solicit a letter, how to politely decline to write one, and what information to give a “recommender” to make his or her job easier. (There are even new fill-in-the-blanks forms at the site for that purpose.)

There are now 175 letters at LettersOfRecommendation.net, all free.

Thanks, all of you who’ve sent in ideas for new printables. I also appreciate the compliments on my collection of printed, bound coloring books on Amazon. Happy printing!
