Gently conclude your email by giving a quick closing remark before signing off. It should be friendly and does not have to contain a lot of detail. A sentence like, "Anyway, I need to to hit the books!" is a perfectly good closing remark. Add a quick statement letting your recipient know that you want to hear back from them. Writing, "Let me know if you need anything else," or "I can't wait to hear what you've been up to," is friendly and casual. Ending an informal email can be much more casual than a formal email. Depending on your recipient, sign-offs can include: Love Cheers See you Yours Bye With an informal email, you typically don't need to sign your whole name. The recipient already knows who you are.
