Hi just wondering what other people do to keep track of their autograph success?? I keep mine in a Excel document on the computer. I've seen one person's that I'm very jealous of. Just thought it would be interesting to see what other's do.

I have an MS Access database. I record all people in there I plan to send to, with a field for address, what they've been in etc, then I fill in the send date, what I've sent, then when they come back I fill in the receive date, how many days it took and what they sent. That way I can sort by name, send date or received date or duration :)

I have a Big Black Book that I call the "Celebrity Book" and it is full with contacts.
Singers, Bands, managers, Publicists, etc. But I also know alot of people ;)

But as for things I send out, I have those on my computer saved in word.

like this:

SENT: 08-02-08 // Donna Summers

and when I recieve it back, I put RCVD: 00-00-00
I also include a note of what I sent be it a CD insert, Record jacket or just a plain letter.

Its been so much fun.
I just started collecting this year and its a fun hobby.
Sometimes I feel like a detective seeking out addresses online, lol
but its all in good fun.

I don't :lol:

I couldn't tell you when I sent or recieved half my autographs! I put them all on my website when I recieve them but that's all I do. I'm very disorganised :lol:

Hi!

Well, I have a notebook, where I wrote all the celebs I'd like to write to and then I just write there sent and received dates, it looks like girlbehindthereddoor's sheets, but it's a notebook. I don't write there addreses so I've got some problems sometimes to remember what address I used :D
