I've just learned to be patient. My longest success took 1,015 days. Fans don't realize that most celebs get thousands of letters a week and having to sort them all out takes a while. Specially if they are filming or something, then they just get backlogged with mail and it takes longer. I wish more celebs would post pics of the bins and bins fanmail they get so us fans can understand why it takes a while for a reply.

I also don't get worried when I send a request then someone sends to the same person afer me and they get their's back first. I always end up getting mine later on, even several months later in some cases. So it's all good.
