 One thing I love about letters is you can just aimlessly write without really having to think as it just always seems to flow, I would start by telling her you really enjoyed her letter and if there is anything in the letter the you need to respond to then do so, then tell her about what you've been upto and things that have been happening, things you enjoy etc and finish by telling her what your thoughts and feelings are regarding her and her coming over.
Just be yourself and don't worry about boring her she is writing to you because she likes you.
Good luck :o)

 i think that you should definately write back to her and dont worry about boring her too much! Basically its impossible to bore someone in a letter unless you ramble on and on. Make a start by answering all of the questions shes asked you followed by some questions of your own for her to answer. Questions are necessary in a letter otherwise there would be nothing really to talk about! Then based around her interests try and ask her questions about that too. Tell her what exactly your interested in and why eg. football, what team you support and ask her what sports shes into etc. etc. Then go on by saying that you'd love to meet up with her if possible when she comes over in december and see how it goes from there

 Why dont you tell her what is going on on England and reply to some of her questions in the letter. You could talk about some of the things that you enjoy doing, also suggest meeting up when she comes to England and suggest a few things to do.
I know it might seem hard, but as soon as you begin I guarantee you will not be able to stop writing. Dont worry about making it long and boring I am sure she will love it.
Good luck hunny

 Well, I would go through her letter and start by answering any questions she asks and making comments on any interests she mentions. You will soon find the pen flowing and you will be asking more questions than you are answering.
The letter can be used as a conversation, you will find a rhythm and your letter will write itself.
If done right, a letter can be just a personal as a face to face conversation.
Never underestimate the power of the pen.
I would suggest using a computer at first, then you can use a grammar and spellchecker. Then just get out the trusty pen.

When you write back to her she will be thrilled to receive it. There's probably not much chance that you will bore her whatever you talk about. Just write the letter how you would talk to her in person. It's not an Englsh essay that's going to get marked, so don't get too hung up on it. But write it. Write it as soon as possible. The content isn't really too important, but the fact you are taking the trouble to write a letter does. Just say what you've been up to. Comment on what she's written to you and show an interest. Perhaps ask a couple of questions about what she has said.
Absolutely ask if she wants to see you when she comes over. She will be pleased to have a friend in another country to see. Don't assume though. Just be casual about it. Say something like "it would be nice to see you when your over in December if you can". Don't be upset if she can't - 4 days is not really a long time and her time may be booked up with family, but the fact she's taken the trouble to write to you shows she would like to see you if she could. So please ask her.

 I don't know if this will help. But I find it easier to type on the computer. Just pretend you're talking to her and you're being natural about it. Keep typing and write out what you're thinking.
My friends always say my letter/email sounds like a real conversation on the phone or in real life. And they enjoy reading it as there's a lot of information and yet it's entertaining. I would suggest don't make it very informal, and allow jokes to be apart of your letter.
If you want to sound sweet, tell her you missed her and looks forward seeing her in December. I bet that's what you're thinking of right?
Good luck!
