Write
Hi, could you help me on this?
Someone wrote: Please write to tell me about your breakfast.
I would correct it like this:
Pls write me back to tell me ....
Is the original wrong? thank you!

Thank you very much. I thought that I could say "Please write" alone.
Many thanks for your help and time!

If you say only 'Please write', then you lose the information about the breakfast. In paraphrasing you should neither add nor subtract information from the original.
