The main formats for letter writing are block format, modified block format, and semi-block format. In block format, all text is left-aligned with single spacing except for double spacing between paragraphs. Modified block format is similar but has the date and closing aligned to the right. Semi-block format is a less common variant where the paragraphs are indented instead of being left-aligned.
