Thanks. You all are right. But, yes, I did send a SASE. I guess all I can do is wait.

I think that's the worst part of collecting, but once you get your first success it's all worth it:) Like they say good things take time!

I know I ask this question a lot to members, but did you make sure and include photos and SASE's with each request. Mant celebrity's require that you send these in order to get a reply. Can you post a list of who your waiting to hear back from?? Then I can tell you who is most likely to respond.

I'm 13 (nearly 14) and I just started collecting autographs, too.
Write to people that you like and admire, and if you get a success, it will seem worth the wait!
I wrote to Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson when they were really popular and still shooting the Harry Potter movies, and got a success after waiting nearly 9 months. When I opened that envelope, I was so happy and so excited, I didn't care that it took such a long time for them to reply.
So, my advice is: Write to people you like, and wait. Be patient. They're celebrities and have busy lives. Don't expect a success to come the next day.
Good Luck, though!

The poster wasn't trying to make you feel bad. To me, that is part of the excitement of this hobby. I love getting a response back after I have pretty much forgotten about it! Just be patient. That's an important component in collecting.

I wasn't trying to be rude. Too many people ask this question is all. Write to people you like, not because they will reply quickly. I'm still waiting on replies from people I sent to in July.

I wasn't trying to! I'm 13 so I know EXACTLY how you feel, in fact I'm waiting on 10!!! Idk, just keep waiting they'll come! You did send a SASE right? I know that usually helps:) I wish you the best of luck!

I wasn't trying to? I'm 13 so I know EXACTLY how you feel!:) I've only been collecting since 08! I'm actually waiting on 10! You should write people you like, and in the summer and stuff you should be seeing SOME success! I wrote a ton of people b4 Christmas, but I really won't give up till around June!

I know.... but I wasn't going to just send to a random person. You don't have to make me feel bad.

I agree you should write the people you like, but Henry Winkler, Katherine MacGregor, Mackenzie Crook, Ryan Ochoa, Martin Klebba, Alison Arngrim! I know it took FOREVER befor I got my first one, but you won't be as excited, if you write people you don't know just to get an autograph
