Dear John,
I finally subscribed to GamePro! Thank you so much for recommending the magazine. I've received two issues so far and I think they're really great. You still subscribe to the
magazine, right? I was wondering if you wanted to subscribe to Electronic Gaming Monthly with me. I saw an ad for it in GamePro. The reason I'm asking you to subscribe to it together is because the subscription fee is quite high, and I thought it might be better to share the subscription with you, since we are both fans of gaming. Write back ASAP!
Thanks
