In a semi-formal letter, I feel it is important to state the reason for the letter straight away. You could use the following to help you:
I am writing to ask/ tell//inform you thatโฆ
I am writing to ask/inquireโฆ
I am writing with regard toโฆ
I am writing with reference toโฆ
I am writing in connection withโฆ
I am writing in response toโฆ
In reply to your letter, I am writing toโฆ (if the question indicates that you
have had a letter)
If the letter is a less formal one to a friend then you should open the letter in a friendlier way. EG:
Dear John,
Hi there! Itโs been so long since Iโve heard from you. I hope you are doing well and I hope all you family are doing fine. Iโm pretty good in spite of working hard. Anyway, the reason Iโm writing isโฆ
