Introduce yourself in the letter?

[namakemono]

(I'm new here today so if this is in the wrong place/has been covered elsewhere I'm sorry )

Is it better to introduce yourself in your letter (not a lengthy autobiography obviously) or just better to get straight on with flattering them?

Thanks in advance for any help

when i write a letter, i like to introduce myself & then admire them

I would introduce myself a little bit.
Don't just jump straight in on flattering them; that would seem really "fake" and insincere about being their fan.

Hello namakemono!

I agree with the above posts, indroduce yourself first so the celebrity knows who you are! {thumb2} You can just write a brief introduction about yourself, like what's your name (obviously! ), your age, where you live, etc.

Good luck, namakemono!

Yeah, usually, I just introduce myself.. like "Hey! What's up? My name is ---- and I think you're such a great talent!"

Sometimes I flatter them first and talk about what I liked them in and then after that I go into introducing myself or vice versa.

Thanks for all the replies , I'm going to start writing letters at the end of the week after I've finished the big wave of Uni work I have D=

Should we tell them that we're autograph collector or just a fan? If we say we're autograph collector, then they might think that we're ebay seller.

Go for fan- they're more likely to personalise it if they know you don't just want their scribble for the sake of it.

I always introduce myself, name, where I'm from, age. things like that.

I always admire them in the second paragraph - I let the first be for my introduction.

I would always say fan, never collector.
