Sending to a home address

I have 2 authors I REALLY want to write to, and it would mean the world to me if I got their autographs. I have found their home addresses online after some searching. Would it be wrong to send to their hone address? I feel uneasy about it, like it's an invasion of privacy or something.

If you were able to find their home addresses, then they probably don't mind their personal information being out there. I would say to go ahead and do it. Just be very polite and explain exactly what you want.

Go with Ryan's advice he gave you on the Facebook page. Just wondering, how'd you find the addresses?

A LOT of searching. I had to try different search engines and keep changing my search terms! It took weeks to find one. Does that change anything?

I see no problem, as it's only mail. But if you don't get a reply, i would not re-send.

Okay, thanks for all the help. What about someone like Fergie? I found her home address. It's REALLY easy to find and is really public.

If it's Dan Brown or one of the other big name authors who are open about thair dislike for the public eye and want their privacy respected then i wouldn't.

Honestly if the author signs the address is usually their publisher/agent; and they sign. The only authors not openly listed are those who don't want to be bothered.

Yeah, her. I'm dying to get a personalized one from her. Her bodyguard usually confiscates any mail before she even sees it, so trying at her home address might work. I have 2 from her but they're not personalized because her bodyguard wouldn't let her.

It took like 2 minutes to find her address on Google. I couldn't believe it.
Chris-I see your point. I don't think they're huge authors but I still want to respect them.

For an author I would not recommend sending to their home address. Use their publisher's addy. If you go to their official site they usually tell you in their FAQ where to send and if they sign. Some don't want books sent, others are happy to sign them, send a bookplate or bookmark. Some will provide you with a fan address or tell you were you can buy signed books to support them and local bookstores. Honestly buying a signed book from the author's perfered store is the best way to support the author. You get their autograph, buy their book to support the author, and the book store makes money.

Taddy if you want PM me the author's you are interested and I will let you know if I looked into getting them to sign and if I have any info for you.

Cheers!
