If we use the words “Thanks” or “Thank you” (on a line by itself) at the end of a correspondence — in the absence of a complimentary closing (such as “Sincerely,”) — do we follow “Thanks” and “Thank you” with a comma or a period?
Example:
Hi Joe,
Body of text …
Thank you,
Mike
Example 2:
Hi Joe,
Body of text …
Thanks,
Mike
Answer
As a non-native speaker, for my English exams I was taught that in terms of punctuation any letter should be closed in the following fashion:
Appropriate closing,
Name
Note the comma after the “Appropriate closing” and no fullstop after “Name”.
So, as far as I can tell, in your case you have written it correctly. A couple of examples for Appropritate closing are here
