Have you been receiving many autographs this summer?

I hate to "buck the trend" but I have been getting quite a few (over 160 for the year not counting pre-prints, autopens and other "fakes") I also do not count doubles (when someone sends me more than one signed item). eg: The Comic Scott Kennedy sent me two signed photos, and a signed CD or if I get two baseball cards signed by the same person.

I am averaging about 1 success a day and sometimes get 10 or 11 in a week. My "slow weeks" have resulted in my getting 2, 3 or 4 autographs TTM.

I think the key is if you want a lot of results, you have to send a lot. Since I am now disabled and no longer able to drive a car or work I have more time for my autographing. I suppose that this has become my job. Even though I hate to think of it that way. It is a lot more fun than crunching numbers 5 days a week (and sometime on weekends too.)

Lastly I have not yet checked today's mail and hopefully when I do I will find more autographs to add to my collection.

I've sent out probably 50 or 60 requests since May and have gotten 14 in response, so not too bad.
