LOR help?
pretty much all the LOR's i send out follow this same format: i start by saying that i'm a big fan of theirs, and highlight some of their work i particularly enjoyed. occasionally i'll ask a question or 2, but never any burning questions as i haven't gotten any answers. then, i cut to the chase and ask for their autograph. i try to keep all my letters as short as i possibly can (i don't ramble on and on about how i loved their acting in one scene of a movie, for example. just the movie overall.) have i been doing it wrong all this time by keeping my letters too short, or what?

Re: LOR help?
That sounds fine to me.
I do the same in my letters. I introduce myself, say what I like and admire about them, then ask for them to sign my pictures.
I mainly collect voice actor and Disney related autographs-Any questions with Disney successes/addresses? Feel free to PM me!
Re: LOR help?
I do that too. As I have thought they don`t have that much time anyway to read long letters (if they do any that is).
Of course I`m a witch. My Hogwarts letter just got a bit ... delayed

Re: LOR help?
This year has been very slow to me too. But I have used this type of letter (and gotten replies in previous years) so I don`t think that is the problem. I hope not at least.
Of course I`m a witch. My Hogwarts letter just got a bit ... delayed

I write the same kind of letters and have fared very well with it so far.kbyyru wrote:pretty much all the LOR's i send out follow this same format: i start by saying that i'm a big fan of theirs, and highlight some of their work i particularly enjoyed. occasionally i'll ask a question or 2, but never any burning questions as i haven't gotten any answers. then, i cut to the chase and ask for their autograph. i try to keep all my letters as short as i possibly can (i don't ramble on and on about how i loved their acting in one scene of a movie, for example. just the movie overall.) have i been doing it wrong all this time by keeping my letters too short, or what?

Re: LOR help?
Agreed with all of the above. Only people I sent particularly long letters to in the past few years have been Daniel Radcliffe and JK Rowling.
Otherwise everyone else I just keep to a page or sometimes a little over.

At the Deathly Hallows Part II premiere in NYC!
20, huge HP fan, will go to great lengths to see my
favorite cast again and again in person!
Favorite successes: HP trio in person, JK Rowling, all my HP autos in fact, Chuck Palahniuk, Richard Nixon (passed to me from my grandfather), Barack Obama in person, Andy Pettitte, James Franco
