"I wanted to e-mail you to let you know that the messages I'm getting on my dating site have changed dramatically since your rewrite. They're more interesting, more relevant, and more natural, if that makes sense. It feels more like hearing from real people and less like getting hit on. I much prefer the way it is now! Haven't been out with any of them yet, but since my changed profile has only been up for five days, I think I'll give it a bit more time and see how things go." - Cayla, Copper Package
