Do you include the addresses of you and the celeb at the top of your letter?
I put my address at the top or the letter but I write it in different colours and put stickers and patterns around it to make it stand out.

Do you set it out professionally?
Because I'm 12 my letters are not that professional! I write 'Hey (Celeb Name)' and I like to use lots of colour and decortions on my letters.

Do you include Yours faithfully/Sincerely(Sorry cant spell!) at the bottom?
It depends who I'm writing to. When I wrote to Sir Alan Sugar I wrote 'From Paige' but when I wrote to Miley Cyrus I wote 'Lots of love from your BIGGEST fan Paige xxxxxx' :lol:

Do you sign at the end?
I print my name at the bottom in pink because thats my favourite colour!

I set my letters out politely. I always include my address at the top of the letter just in case {thumb2} I also feel that starting the letter with 'Dear Mr/Miss' is polite, I don't know why, maybe because I was brought up to be polite lolzz :mrgreen: Using the celeb's first name is a bit informal, as they don't know you personally and vice versa.

I sometimes write and I sometimes type my letters. My reply quote is the same. I always write my address on the top somewhere, usually smaller than the rest of my the letter. This way I also got two replies for one letter I wrote, first my SASE was returned with my pictures, half a year later a got another reply, telling me that he lost my stuff somewhere and send me another signed picture.

Most of the time I write Dear + first name, if the person is older than I write Dear Mr./Mrs. + last name. I always sign at the end with Best wishes and my first name. I always try to be friendly but not too formal, but this always depends on the celebrity I'm writing to.

I personally just write what i feel about them and what they have done for the music/tv or movies.Honesty is alway's the best policy in this case.

LOL no it doesnt :lol:
Also, about signing your name at the bottom, even if you type your letter, it shows the celebs that they're not reading a form letter, and are reading a sincere letter from the heart if you sign it.
Again, I'd say no it doesnt.

But thats just me {wow}
Mr Kennedy, you're in a very disagreeable mood today :lol:

I never write my address on my letters. I do always write my name in full on my sase though, that way I can still get a personalisation even if my letter gets misplaced {thumb2} I've never had any problems so far :)

Do you include the addresses of you and the celeb at the top of your letter? Yes, I do. But I just started in early February. Now I always do it, though. I only do my address though, not the celebrity's.

Do you set it out professionally? No, I write it like a fan, and heartfelt.

Do you include Yours faithfully/Sincerely(Sorry cant spell!) at the bottom? I write Sincerely.

Do you sign at the end? Yes, I do my average signature!

I have written typed letter for years and NEVER had any problem/celebs commenting about that so people who cant write that tell(in their opinion).Please dont feel bad for typing! Its not if it is handwritten or typed the letter matters,it is what it says in it!

I type my letter on the computer(not everything,the name i put and always sign it) and most of the address i always type but not all!when i put an Extra envelope back i always put the senders(celebs address) on the back and always write my address on the backside of the envelope i will send to the celeb!

I write how I was taught to write letters in school.

I always include my address in the top right hand corner, and then begin my letter with Dear Mr./Miss.

I don't think it is informal, I just think it's the polite way to go about it. Just because I watch their films, I don't know them personally, and it's not really for me to call them by their first names.

I always finish my letter with your sincerely (or yours faithfully if they have been knighted) and then sign my name at the end.

As far as looking formal goes... well I like to think the bits inbetween the Dear and Yours, are more informal and unique. ;-)
