    Eureka! Making your letter stand out among other letters.

    Hello all,

    If you were to write a letter to someone* who receives fan mail frequently, what would you put in your letter to make it stand out?


    *Examples include: authors, musicians, actors, athletes, government officials etc etc

    It just so happens I am both an author and an athlete so I have received many letters... okay so perhaps I'm not accomplished at either yet, but I will be.

    I would send my letter in an envelope with "Congratulations!" or something written on it in formal looking print. Because that way I can trick them into reading it!

    They see me rolling. They hating, patrolling.
    Trying to catch me riding dirty.

    you know your letter is only going to get read by some letter lackey right? Do you think Brad Pitt or Barack Obama will care about your letter if you're gonna put sparkles and flames on it?

    That's why you don't write to people who are never going to read your letter. That would be a huge waste of time.

    I only write to people who I know will send something back.

    I'd make it as simple as possible. People try too hard to stand out, and letters like that become boring and a hassle to read. At least that's the kind of letter that would stand out to me if i got to read a large quantity of letters.
    Since I was thinking of an author, I guess I'd slip in a murder mystery from me for him to solve

    People do glance at your letters - make it brief but witty or catchy or memorable.
