So the address should go like this (on the envelope)...

Shane XXX

No.37,
Longxiang Rd.,
Longtan Township,
Taoyuan County 325,
Taiwan (R.O.C.)


Josh Duhamel

The Gersh Agency NY
41 Madison Avenue
33rd Floor
New York, NY 10010
USA

OR go straight like this (on the envelope)...

Shane XXX
No.37, Longxiang Rd., Longtan Township, Taoyuan County 325, Taiwan (R.O.C.)

Josh Duhamel
The Gersh Agency NY, 41 Madison Avenue, 33rd Floor, New York, NY 10010, USA


Where should I add 'DO NOT BEND'?

Should I add 'AIR MAIL' on my envelope? If so, where should I add?

Write my English name? Shane? or Shane Chung (Shane plus my Chinese first name)?

It's up to you if you want to put your chinese name as well.

Your self addressed envelope should have your name and your address on it. It does not really matter where you write do not bend or airmail.

and yes you've written the address for Josh Duhamel correctly.

I would tone down the letter a bit, Here is how I would send it.

Dear Josh,

My name is Shane. I’m from Taiwan. I’m 19 years old and a sophomore in Chung Yuan Christian University.

I am fan of you and your films especially Transformers. It’s very popular here in Taiwan and is probably the coolest film I’ve ever seen.

I was wondering, if it’s not too much trouble, Could I please request an Autographed picture of yourself.

enclosed is my sase.

I’m sorry if my handwriting is hard for you to read or my English is not easy for you to understand. That’s because English is not my language.

Thanks for spending your precious time reading my letter and thanks for your autograph! I appreciate it!!


Wish you a big success

Shane

But if I ask 'Do you like my American name?' his answer would only be 'yes or no'...but I want more...

ps. are you sure 'American name'? not 'English name'?
