I'm Yay for them.

I don't send them with everyone, just depends on who it is. I know I spent a lot of time reading the ones on Ryan J's photobucket page. I get a kick out of seeing some of their answers. I've got two back so far.

I think some of the celebs also probably enjoy doing them. I know things change probably once you are famous but if people sent me Q&A's in the mail right now I'm enjoy doing them lol.

It's a matter of taste. If you like that sort of thing, and are aware that there's a fair chance it won't come back, then go for it!! Every now and then you'll get a nice surprise!

Personally, I don't send them.

I'm sort of nyay I guess. :D

I think my main problem with a Q&A is what if I offended them? Like I asked for their autograph already and now I want more of them? I wouldn't like to think that they're signing my stuff wondering "why the hell this person want to know stuff about me".

But then again, it would be nice to do something like that if I wasn't already asking too much of them.

I send one sometimes, really depends on who I'm sending to.

Ironically, I've always thought a Q&A showed that you were a truer fan and not just another autograph seeker. Who really knows though.

That's true, I do worry if I'm asking too much, but I figured it was fairly short and if he doesn't want to fill it out then he doesn't have to, and I do enjoy reading other peoples Q&A's, some are funny, so its even cooler to receive one you sent out then get to read it..... then share it with everybody lol.

And I have no plans to send them out to everyone I write to, just those who I'd be truly interested in getting a Q&A back from

I say Yay.

I do like questionnaires, it's always interesting to discover something about a celeb that you have never heard of before because they were never asked about that in an interview. I sent a couple or so of Q&A's and so far I've gotten two filled out and one half-filled out. I rarely send them, but if I do, it's for someone I really admire and want to know more about them. I try hard creating such question that are interesting and original, but not offending or invading their privacy. Sometimes it's really difficult to make up such questions. But I always enjoy reading the answers if they decide to fullfil the Q&A for me. So I say Yay, but only occasionally.

Yay! They provide that little bit of proof that the celeb cares about their fans (and probably actually read your letter) and it is fun to see their answers :D

I don't send them, mainly because I'd have no idea where to put them when I got them back! I think they're a cool idea, just not my thing. I prefer to just write letters, myself ^_^
