My hobby is collecting autographs. I started doing this about 15 years ago, and then got out of it. I just started collecting again. Some of my autographs were obtained in person, some were purchased from reputable dealers and some were obtained through the mail by writing to the celebrity.
I thought this girl was cute when she was on Idol and she had a good back story, so I decided to write her. I sent a letter, SASE and 4x6 photo on Nov. 1, 2010 and received my photo back signed today, Jan. 6, 2011.
