Help, I'm new at this!

Okay, what are some things to say or do to get a better chance of a celeb writing back?

It always helps to be polite in your request.

In addition, including a Self-Addressed Stamped envelope greatly increases your chances of receiving a reply.

It also helps to include a photo for the celeb to sign, or an index card.

But some celebs just don't sign at all, so doing these wouldn't increase your chances. This is just a start for you. Good luck!
