G'day Marcia. I have only just seen your fax now -- it has been 
frantically 
busy here this week!

Sure. How about this:

Marcia Pinheiro approached me about a paper she was writing on the 
Sorites 
paradox. She was clearly very competent at the technical aspects of her 
work, 
but was unsure about how to go about producing a publishable paper 
based on 
it. We had several meetings about this paper, which involved numerous 
discussions about presenting ideas and writing style. It is very 
pleasing to 
see this paper published recently in Semiotica.

Marcia impressed me with her intellectual energy, determination to 
succeed and 
her enthusiasm for her subject. Marcia was always respectful, punctual 
and 
attentive to detail, and I am sure she will succeed in whatever area 
she works.

Cheers,
	James.
