Zen and the Art of Christmas Letters Chuck Storla

"Christmas letters are the fruitcakes of the literary world. At least once in life, everyone sends one, but no one likes to receive one." Use humor to fight back against boring Christmas letters.
This book will teach you how to write a Christmas letter that doesn't suck and even enjoy reading the ones that do. If you hate wading through Christmas letters each year, this book will show you the world as it could be. "Your relatives are already laughing at you. Make them get in line by laughing at yourself first." This book teaches you -
- How to walk the fine line between embellishing and lying.
- Why you should never let your pets write the letter for you.
- How stock photos can give you a more attractive family.
- When to write a special letter if an inheritance is at stake.
- Why Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs should drive your letter's content.
- How to adapt the Christmas letter format for all your holiday needs, from Hanukkah to Kwanza. But wait. There's more. The holidays are busy. If you do not have time to write an original letter, this book includes templates of paragraphs and an entire letter that you can modify to make your own. Put humor back in your holidays and buy this book. Even better, buy a copy for everyone who sends you a boring Christmas letter every year. It is a present for them and a favor for yourself.
