Had a success by rechecking agency info. In March I sent a card to Julie McNiven to an agent that I got from SAG. And they do rep her. But, not hearing anything I did some checking and then I found her website and found her Manager. So I wrote to her through them. And got the reply back in 2 weeks.

I would tend to wait around 6 months or more before rewriting, and I agree with pinkie:
[quote="pinkie"]I am an advocate of patience by and large and happy to wait, even if it means waiting years, with two exceptions.

1. Like many around here I study feedback at different forums around the world so you can get an idea if someone is replying to everyone that has sent to them. If you notice that someone you sent to is signing like mad, and you do not get a reply within a month or so of that, I think it is reasonable to resend.

2. When trying for the really hard to get people (not always big names either), it is worth a few efforts as if they do read their mail, they may be impressed with your persistance. Stuart Damon is my classic example. I sent my first request to him in 2000 via the General Hospital address and eventually got a reply in September 2007 with my 5th request to Stuart the GH address![/quote]

Phoebe :D

well for me i waite about six months to get something then if i have it gotten anything i write back. so right now im watiting for robert pattinson to write i have been wating five months from his us one and then three months from his uk one so im going to waite a little bit longer before i write him back.

[color=#000000]It all depends on the person for me. If they're someone that usually doesn't take long to reply, I wait a few months. But if they take a long time to reply, it'll probably be a year or more. That is, if I do resend.

This is definitely not the hobby for the impatient person. :lol:

I'll wait at least a year before resending. None of my requests have been out one year so I have several months before I'll even consider resending any of my requests!

Khackdrums :D

Looking at other opinions, I guess it just depends on the circumstances. Just as long as the star isn't spammed.

Here is another example.... I wrote to two of the actresses from the Batman animated series. After 3 months I rechecked them. One had an address that was different than the one I used. And from the feedback on Fanmail.biz, is where she checks her mail. Also, one request went to the agency CESD in LA. And after calling to confirm she was still with them. I was told they DO NOT forward fan mail. So I called the NY office of CESD. And they said they would. :roll:

Hi zipbags! ;)

Normally, I would wait [b]6+ months[/b] before re-writing. {thumb2} However, if I happen to find a via venue address, I would write there too, even if it's only a week later (than when I send to the agency) because chances are that I could get a reply easier VV. :) In the past, I re-wrote very easily because I honestly believed that I won't get a reply - that's why I have two successes from Chris Evans ([i]Johnny/Human Torch[/i] in "Fantastic Four" films), Wentworth Miller and Audrey Tautou. {up}

Also, I think it also depends on who you plan on re-writing to: for example, one can only be patient when awaiting a reply from people like Robert Pattinson, Zac Efron or Rachel McAdams as they're very popular and can take months or even more than a year to respond. It's not really necessary to write to them again as they will eventually get to your letter. :)

For me, it depends how many successes were received since I sent my request out. If there are lots of them, I resend my request otherwise I wait. Usually I wait around 6 months, maybe 1 year but it depends who was I writing to.
Actually I resend my request only 2 until now ;)
