In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: You will need approximately one cup of a hot liquid as the base of your drink. Traditionally, a hot toddy is made with a base of hot water. This is probably the easiest liquid to use, as you can simply heat water in a kettle or pan on the stove. Using hot water, as opposed to a flavored liquid, does not mean that your toddy will be flavorless. It just means that the flavors you add to the drink will be stronger and more recognizable in the final drink. Add a herbal tea bag to your hot water. This will give your hot toddy more flavor and it will help your throat, if you are drinking your hot toddy to ease a cold or flu. Any type of tea will work. If you like a lot of flavor, consider using a bolder tea, such as a spiced blend like chai. This will add tremendously to the flavor. Remember that a lot of teas have caffeine. If you want to go to sleep soon after drinking your toddy, be sure to get an herbal tea instead of one that is caffeinated. Hot cider is a great base for a hot toddy. It is flavorful and sweet, and will add a lot of character to your drink. Hot cider is best heated in a small saucepan on very low heat. You can also warm it in the glass you are using for your drink in a microwave. Just be careful, as the glass is likely to get very hot in a microwave. Because there is no strict recipe for a hot toddy, you can really choose any base liquid that is usually drunk warm. For example, you can use coffee or hot chocolate as the base for your drink. Remember that you can make your hot toddy any way you want. If you don't like the traditional version, try something new!
Summary: Start with hot water. Use tea. Opt for hot apple cider. Choose an alternate base.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Try to think of the handover as an opportunity for you to really contribute to giving someone the best possible chance to succeed. You are not just trying to hand off tasks and jobs, but are trying to help your successor's professional development and your former employer's long term-health. Do this by pointing out any relevant training opportunities that you know of. Perhaps when you started the job, you received a suite of training to help you adapt and develop. Be sure you mention this to your successor, and encourage them to explore the possibilities. If you are spending time with the person who will be filling your position, it's important not to focus solely on technical aspects of the job. Each place has a unique working environment and culture that can be intimidating or confusing for a newcomer. Be sure to set some time aside to give the new person the lowdown on how the office functions. Make the effort to take them around the office and introduce them to everyone. Be sure you clearly define the role of the new employee as well as existing employees. If the job description of the new arrival is slightly different to yours, or their responsibilities and priorities are focussed elsewhere, make sure existing staff recognise this. If you really want to go the extra mile, you could provide the new employee with your contact details. You might say that they can contact you if there is a major issue or they need a little guidance. Not everyone will be happy to do this, and it is likely to depend on your relationship with your former employer. Often a problem can be resolved with a simple email. Offering to help out after you leave will make a good impression and help boost your reputation.
Summary: Highlight available support and training. Don't neglect the working culture. Provide your contact details.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Whether you're submitting your story over the internet or printing it and mailing it in, including a cover letter helps the editors keep tabs on your submission and remind them what it is about after reading other submissions. The cover letter should include your name and address, maybe your bio, as well as a quick look at the story. The brief look at your story is not a summary. Rather, limit this to 25 words and quickly explain who the main character is and what the conflict is about. Address the letter to the editor by name. You can usually find the names of editors in the "About" sections of magazine websites or in books previously published. In case your submission is chosen, the editors may want to include a short bio about you, about 3 sentences long. To prevent them from having to do more work by asking you for a bio once they are ready to publish, furnish them with one in your cover letter. Keep this bio about your work, not your likes and dislikes. You may want to list where you live, work, and where else you have been published. If you've never been published, focus on your experience and education. Decorative fonts like script or cursive make your writing unprofessional and your words difficult to read. Since the industry standard is plain, clear fonts like Calibri and Times, your submission should reflect understanding of this. If you want to be taken seriously, be serious about your font. Also avoid creative font colors and varying sizes of font. No matter what writing style editors prefer, they all like to get stories that are polished--and that means proofreading. Also look at your story for awkward wording and redundancy to boost the story's appeal. Take into account that many editors don't like to see overwriting. Paring down your extra adjectives and being conservative with adverbs can keep your language simple yet engaging. One way to trim the fat from your writing is to use simple dialogue tags like "said" instead of flowery verbs like "uttered." Write down or type up a list of where you send your stories and when. This way, if you send the same story to multiple magazines, it will be easy to figure out who to tell if your story gets accepted. You can't have your work published in more than one place at a time. If you do submit the same story to different magazines at the same time, inform the editors in your cover letter that it is a "simultaneous submission" and assure them that you will inform them if your story is chosen elsewhere before they get to it. Some journals and magazines do not accept simultaneous submissions. Such magazines will sometimes automatically reject your story if this is the case. Read closely when you send in your story to make sure it is ok to send it to more than one place at the same time.
Summary:
Write a cover letter. Write a brief bio about yourself. Avoid decorative fonts. Make sure you revise. Record where you submit.
