OMG I got an autograph today! I walked out to my mailbox after work and there was a big white Studio Fan Mail envelope. It was Alan Alda's! Now I'm more optimistic about the others coming back! YAY!

Hello Katie! ;)

Don't lose hope! {thumb2} Looking at recent feedback received, you can expect your Shia autograph soon (if you included a SASE). :D You might hear from Steve Carrell also soon as there's been recent successes from him too. Duhamel is currently filming "Transformers 2" so you might wait a few more months to hear from him. As for Barnes, he's currently busy promoting "Prince Caspian", plus, he must be flooded with fanmail at the moment! :lol:

SFM can take anything from a few weeks to 6+ months! Also, they can't guarentee you that you will get all those requested so you might want to resend some if you haven't heard from them after a few months. {up}

Good luck Katie!! :mrgreen: I hope you receive something very soon! {thumb2} If so, let us know!

Good luck collecting Katie!

[b]You know, I wrote a letter to Zac Efron on december 2006, two letters to Jesse McCartney on august 2007, one letter to Kelly Clarkson on september 2007, an other on april 2008, and a letter to Edward Speleers on april 2008, and I never received something ! You're not the only one who feels unliked lol, me too =( ![/b]

It's only June, you sent those in May. You have to be very patient as an autograph collector, and count yourself lucky if you get something back within [b]three[/b] months of your success.

I've had some SFM requests on hold since last year and still nothing. It does take a while for some requests to come, especially if they're high-profile stars. It happens to me..like when someone gets something back, I expect it'll come but it wouldn't come back until a few months. I think the key is to just keep waiting and don't worry about it.

Question: I know that people should expect like 3 months etc for autographs to come back but I have had NO success. Here's what I've sent:

May 21- Steve Carell and Ben Barnes
May 29-Hugh Jackman, Shia LaBeouf, and Josh Duhamel

May 25 (through Studio Fan Mail): Alan Alda, Alexis Bledel, Henry Winkler, Julia Stiles, and Tobey McGuire.

I thought it was really odd I haven't gotten the SFM ones back. Especially since it says expect about 2 weeks and it's been almost 5.

Is this normal?
