[quote="mashka"]Lately I've been feeling very discouraged because out of the hundreds of letters I have sent i have only recieved about 15 back...and post here in Canada isn't cheap but there are so many people I want to get.

Luckily my mom encourages it! My grandmother did it and passed it on to me! I have Lucy from I love Lucy's Autograph but it is a stamp but it is still a collectible in my eye! I am going to pass it on to my children and I hope they pass this hobby on to their children as well and so on and so on.

Lately I've been feeling very discouraged because out of the hundreds of letters I have sent i have only recieved about 15 back...and post here in Canada isn't cheap but there are so many people I want to get. My mom doesn't help and thinks it's a bit of a waste of time and money.

So I am back to Collecting I have been discouraged as of late because I have not been getting anything back and it has been getting expensive. But I am finally back. I have been autograph collecting since 2005 and have over 200 autographs. But took a looooong break but finally got a bunch of stars I really like and have been writing like crazy this past month. Anyone else been discouraged and took breaks?
