Personal letters/responses from celebs

[metroid788]

What do you guys send if you want to try and get one? I've seen some successes with people including a index card in their letters.

How does everyone here try to get personal messages back?

To be honest, It's all up to the celeb on whether they want to send replies back such as notes or letters. I do my part by sending items for them to sign and a SASE for them to reply with. I also handwrite every request I send out.

I do make little Q&A cards, but I never demand that they fill them out, only if they have time and want to. so far I've gotten 30 filled out by various celebrities.

I usually send a 1 page hand written letter.
With that I will include either CD, DVD or record jackets to get signed.
I am probably one of the few on here who send out many to one celeb at a time.
But thats just me and how i do. I have always gotten everything I sent signed.

I don't do anything to really "try" to get a personal message, which is why I always love it when I do get one as I never expected it. Mostly the ones I have had have been something like "thank you for your letter" which has been signed on the picture I sent (I send either pictures or DVD covers depending on who it is) although I have gotten a few letters, little notes and message separate to my pictures.

I think it really depends on what you say in your letter and also who they are - if they don't get much fanmail (or most people only ever mention one film/role/show and you are different), then that might lead them to think "hey, I really liked this letter!", and you might get something back that you never hoped for.
