Should I be worried?

So I sent about 20 letters about 5 months ago to some very famous and some not so well known people, and I haven't revived any of them back. Should I try again or wait a few more months?

It may depend on the individual and what their reputation for signing is. You may want to try and research each person to determine as to whether or not they have a good reputation. Also, did you include a SASE & item to be signed with each request? If not, that could factor into it as well. Collecting autographs can be very hit or miss. Sometimes you get lucky and sometimes you don't. You just have to keep trying. Good luck!

Well being that these some people you sent to are "very famous" , no. Don't be worried.
They are just busy and have a lot to do. RELAX, get a secondary hobby and wait until they arrive.
They WILL come.
Just outta curiosity who did you send to?

Hi irish_seeker
Did you include a Self Addressed Stamped Envelope with your letter of Request?
Usually, it doubles your chance of success

This hobby definitely tests your patience!! I have over 20 LOR/SASE out right now and they've only been out since March/April. Still a killer! It's funny because I've gotten international reponse from celebs much faster than when I send to anyone in the states. Odd.....just be patient though!
