Hey guys :)
I try to limit myself to a few every month but I realised that wasn't really working for me because I usually end up sending up to 15 per month. So what I did is decided "To Send" dates, so that I can limit myself to sending around 10 or less per 1-2 month. I sent 11 today already, at the last minute I decided to send to Opeth and August Burns Red VV in Dubai. :lol: They'll be performing at the annual Dubai Desert Rock this Thursday.

I try and send 2-3 per week nowadays, but in late January I sent at least 6-8 per week.
I'm over that now, though.

Well, I'm starting a new collection so I have to send out as many as I can. Then, I wait a month, while I keep sending and recieving. I only write to people I admire though. {thumb2}

1-2 a month! I would have thought much more, looking at your successes :D Well you still have an amazing collection :) Robert Pattinson and Zac Efron! Jay Reno is a great one to have as well I loved him in Pink Panther :P
Thank you Nich! :oops: Yeah, to me it's not about quantity, but much rather quality. {thumb2} I also only write to my favourite stars who sign authentically, the rest I have to try via venue - so that's also part of the reason why I send out so few! :lol:

I only send letters to people i truly like and admire that way the letters are sincere and the autographs have meaning if you get them.

I've also been collecting TTM and IP a lot longer than you! :) It doesn't matter how many letters you write a month - just write from the heart and you'll have a collection you can be proud of. :)

And I only send out to people I actually admire, and know of. I don't send out to people just to have another autograph. I only want people I truly like in my collection.

So yeah, next month I'll probably send out less, but who knows - I've got another free month on my hands.

wow thats so much ive been collecting ttm for 2 years almost and have only sent out about 50 letters and thats including letters ive gotten back rts and second attempts. to be honest like i said i really dont like to send to much especially since stamps in canada are up to 98 cents. but yes i also write to people only who i am a big fan of.

ive been very succesfull ive gotten 14 authentic :D and 3 that are a bit sketchy :? 3 pre prints :neutral: and 4 rts {down} . not bad for someone who only sends a few times a year

After I've seen enough success... I'm like "okay I HAVE to send now!" So I just send. :)

But I wait about a month before buying new stamps!
