The body is the meat of your letter. For block and modified block letter formats, single space and left justify each paragraph. Be sure to leave a blank line between each paragraph, however, no matter the format.
The body should be focused on why you are writing and should be as direct and polite as possible. Separate each left-aligned paragraph by skipping a space. End the body with a two-sentence wrap-up paragraph to clarify why you are writing and to thank them for their consideration.
