Do you write your age on your letters?

Post by Aragil »

Do you always tell the person you're writing to your age?

Usually, I sign my name and write my age, but I forgot to do so on my last letter and I was wondering what everyone thinks the advantages or disadvantages (if there are any) of writing your age are :)

I always write my age. My first sentence is usually something like "Hi, my name is Joey and I'm 14 years old." Then I go from there. I don't want to be too formal, but I do not want to be informal. I think it's nice to tell them your age.

Just an opinion :D I'm curious to hear what others do {up}

Hey Joana!

When I write I always include a little about myself! I tell the celeb how old I am and what my hobbies and interests are!

I think it adds a personal touch to the letter and lets them get to know you a little more.

As far as benefits are concerned I don't think it will increase the chance of getting a success back! It's neither an advantage or disadvantage - It just adds a little more to the letter! :lol:

I do the same. I usually write to older stuff (classic rockers, M*A*S*H*, Seinfeld, WKRP) and I think they might like to hear that they have younger fans also.

Just my 2 cents

EDIT: Yay 100th post :P

Well, and...if you are younger, they may feel more inclined to send you something. Also, that's just my opinion!! :D

I always tell them my age. I don't know why i always include it, it just seems natural. I guess i write them my age so they know a little about me as the writer of the letter.

Chrissy :D

Yeh, I always say my age. Usually at the begining I just say, hi I'm Danielle, I'm 16 and I'm from the Gold Coast.

Yeah. What Smudge said. LOL...

I always tell them my age personally. I don't know about the replying if you're younger, but if it's true I have an advantage. (*not disclosing age ahem...)

I like to tell them where I'm from, too. So they know that their fans are all round the globe...
