When I was 10 years old I started writing letters. I wrote to any and all celebrities I had an interest in. I sent letters to every single member of the cast of Star Trek: The Next Generation. I sent letters to every cast member of Star Wars, Fresh Prince of Bel Air....and on and on through the years. I have autographs from people like Arsenio Hall, Christian Slater, Gary Sinise, and Cary Elwes as well as many others. I wrote letters to everybody I even remotely liked. I made sure to learn each actor's name and I never called them by their character's names ever. I continue to write letters to celebrities to this day, though now with access to twitter, it's not as necessary.
Why am I posting about this? My 12 year old daughter told me tonight that she would very much like to put a book together like the one I have with the various autographed pictures from celebrities of whom she is a fan. It started with a request for Matt Smith's autograph for Christmas, which I did everything I could to make sure came true. Granted, the autograph didn't arrive in the mail until the following February, but I still got it for her.
And knowing that twitter is out there now makes things so much easier.
So here I am, asking for a little help. I'm asking for anyone and everyone that is willing to please email me so that I can give the address at which to send the autographed pictures to my daughter. She's an extremely intelligent, very healthy girl. I work a minimum wage job and would like to give her whatever I can, which isn't very much. So if you would please help me out, that would be great.
Thank you all in advance.
