Comments: A good friend sent me this as a birthday present. She has connections to Debbie and knows I'm a fan of B movies and horror, and of course, I was thrilled to get this. I've been a fan of Debbie's mainly from listening to her on the now canceled Fangoria radio show on Sirius, but I have seen some of her movies too. This was a cool present!

Glenn lives!

Comments:  "The Walking Dead" has become one of my favorite shows, and Glenn as played by Steven Yeun is probably my favorite character on it. I'm very excited to have this one for my collection. Steven seems to be a great TTM signer as well. He signed the 8x10 I sent, but many people are receiving signed photos from the show by emailing his management company at http://pineriverentertainment.com/ . So happy I got this one!

Comments: Oh my granny, I NEVER thought I'd get this one, and it means so much. I have been trying to get Ms. Benson's sig for years! "The Little Mermaid" is my favorite Disney film and one of my favorite films, period. Jodi Benson is the voice of Ariel, and I think her singing voice is just amazing. This success means a lot to me, and it's one of my top autographs. Thank you, Jodi Benson!

Comments: This goes on my list of successes that took years and I never thought I'd see, but I'm really glad to have the original Victoria for my "Twilight" collection. I love Rachel's performances in the first tow "Twilight" movies and am still sad she got replaced in the third. So nice of her to sign this picture and send it back to me.

Comments: I wrote to Eric after he guest starred on "Smallville" as Booster Gold. I'm obviously a huge fan of Superman and DC Comics, and I LOVED Eric in this role. Since he was also on "Passions," which I used to watch on occasion, and he now plays Brady on "Days of Our Lives," I needed him for my collection anyway. He signed the photo I sent and included a B&W one of his own. An awesome success!

OMG! Jennifer Lawrence aka Katniss Everdeen!

Address used: "The Hunger Games" set address, no longer valid

Comments: OMG! I swear to God, I never thought I'd get this back, and especially with such a cool inscription, but wow! To find this in the mail after coming home from DragonCon was like the icing on the cake! Jennifer is a great actress (just watch "Winter's Bone") and I love what I've seen of her personality on talk shows. I haven't seen many TTM successes reported from Jennifer -- but granted, she's a fairly new star and might not have received many requests. I saw where many people were getting their requests to the HG production office sent back RTS (return to sender, unopened) so I figured I wouldn't get mine back at all since it was sent so long ago. As far as I can tell from comparing it to in-person sigs, this may or may not be authentic. I can't find any signatures from Jennifer on the web that look alike! Based on the inscription, whoever signed it also read my letter. I teased and said that those yankees, the North Caroliners, had better treat her right while she's there or they'd have me to answer to (I live in a neighboring state). And for this inscription to be on a picture of Katniss is just amazing, if it's real. Best autograph day EVER! (If anyone has an authentic, in-person signature from her, please let me know. Id love to compare them!)

Update: After much debate and comparisons to other signatures on the fanmail.biz forums, the majority opinion now is that this is indeed a real signature. I don't know how I was so lucky to get such a cool inscription, but this has been bumped up to my favorite all-time autograph.

DragonCon 2011


Martin Landau
Received: In-person at DragonCon 09/02/11

Comments: I love Mr. Landau! He starred in one of my all-time favorite movies, "Ed Wood," and won an Academy Award for his portrayal of one my all-time favorite people, Bela Lugosi. He was also in "Mission: Impossible" and the first "The X-Files" movie. So when I met Mr. Landau, I told him how much I loved him in these roles and told him I thought he was amazing! He was so grateful. He grabbed my hand and told me "Thank you" a few times, and then we chatted some about our favorite scenes from "Ed Wood" - it's a movie he loves as well. I was holding up the line, so I didn't get to spend as much time chatting with him as I'd have liked, but I was so honored that he grabbed and held my hand -- not once but twice -- and kept telling me thank you! A truly dear man who I am grateful I had the chance to meet!


Eliza Dusku
Received: In-person at DragonCon 09/02/11

Comments: One thing I like about DragonCon is that you really have a chance to meet some big stars one on one, and I have been a fan of Eliza's for years - since she first starred on Buffy. She's a tough signer to get through the mail, so I went to her signing line first. She was so nice to everyone! Because her line was probably the longest there, I didn't get to talk to her much, but I did tell her that I loved her from "Tru Calling" and still miss that show, to which she replied, "At least we were able to keep it on for a little while." Then I told her that my niece was probably the biggest Buffy fan in the universe and that that same niece had also made me watch "Wrong Turn" (a movie Eliza stars in) more times than I personally cared for. She laughed and said, "Awesome!" She's guest starring on "White Collar" soon on the USA Network, and I'm looking forward to seeing her on screen again with her "Tru Calling" co-star Matt Bomer!


Sean Patrick Flanery
Received: In-person at DragonCon 09/02/11

Comments: Wow, what can I say about this one? Sean Patrick Flanery has been one of my favorite actors since I was in high school. He has been in so many movies - many of them independent - and TV shows and is such a good, underrated actor! I've been trying to get his signed picture through the mail for a long time! Even better, I got to meet him! I was so nervous too. I mean, at his age, he is still a very hot man! I told him that I'd seen probably all of his movies and that my favorites were "Powder," "Lone Hero" and "Ten Inch Hero," but it's so hard to choose because he's made so many! He told me he was thrilled to meet such a fan and that he hoped he made lots more movies I would check out. You know I will, Mr. Flanery. You know I will. ;)


Joe Manganiello
Received: In-person at DragonCon 09/02/11

Comments: I have a confession to make. I was never a fan of Joe's until recently. I HATED his character on "One Tree Hill" and disliked him as Flash in "Spider-Man" too. But when I started watching season 3 of "True Blood" last month and met Alcide for the first time, I quickly revised my opinion and jumped aboard the bandwagon of fans who totally love him. Plus, what can I say? He's extremely hot. I didn't really say much to him, in fact, because his hotness rendered me completely speechless. I could only stare. And I am being completely serious. Still, he was very nice and friendly, and I enjoyed his personality in the True Blood Q&A immensely!
