Have you ever sent Focus on the Family, or one of the AIO writers or actors a letter and got a reply back? If so tell us about it here!

Here's my storie: Mandie (My BFF) and I were spending some time together and we randomly decided to send a letter to Townsend Coleman.... we never got a reply. A few months later I facebooked him and asked him if he would be willing to do an interview and he said So that was very exiting!!!!
:jase:

That's awesome! I've never written a letter, though I've considered it. And Facebook would be a great way to reach the AIO actors for interviews, but I don't have a Facebook.

I was very glad I got a facebook. Because I knew that a lot of AIO actors were on Facebook.

I've sent several notes/letters to Katie and have gotten a reply each time. I've also sent a letter to Chris (and she replied). And my brother and I sent a letter to Focus and they replied too.

I might post some of the responses later (when I have my external hard drive to get them.)

And yes. I have a lot of AIO actors/writers on my facebook.

That is very cool!! Katie is someone who you will never forget! But I have not had the pleasure of meeting Chris, I hope to one day.

Yep. Katie is really nice. And Chris (I have met her) she is really nice too, and hilarious. =]

Did you go to the live show in Dallas?

What address did you use to send letters to Katie, Snubs? I've emailed Focus before, and they always reply. I like the idea of sending letters, though. That's a nice idea.

No.. =(
But I went to the 2008 show in Colorado. That was fun. =]

Well, honestly I never actually sent her a "snail-mail" letter. But rather letters through her website and email (vokel.inc@gmail.com). I Sent Chris a letter through email as well (though, I can't remember her email off the top of my head).

I'm working on actually sending a handwritten letter to Katie and Chris (and I'm still working on getting an address). So I'll let you know when I get an address. =}

You can find actor adresses here This is where I found Townsend's address!
The only actors I've met are: Katie Leigh, Zach Callison, Phil Lollar, Townsend Coleman, and Jave Griffin. But I only talk to Katie and Townsend now....

Hey Sparky, I know this is a bit off-topic, but do you have any actor email addresses? I want to interview several actors, but I can't seem to dig up their email addresses!

Thanks, Sparky! And I'm with Mr. Thinker...I'd kind of like having some of their email addresses as well...

Sorry guys, one of the mods on here asked me not to give away actor email addresses.......

That's probably best. I mean, unless it is on a public website (like Katie's), then it's probably a good idea not to give it out. I mean, I don't think they would want a bunch of people emailing them through an email address they didn't really want public.

I have met, Zach Callison. He I really, well it what sort of awkward when i met him because im ten and he's like, maybe 12. since we haven't got much of an age difference we said one word. i gave him the paper to auto graph, he scribbeled his name and said, " here". and when i met katie, she was awesome, because she is, connie. what i mean is, she dosen't change her voice at all. When i met Jess harnell, He is so funny, his hair, is about 2 and a half feet long. ( Jess im not making fun of you.) now townsend is really cool 2. Andre Stokja, is an Intersting Guy. Now, Kimmy robertson, a real character, she was wearing big strawberry shortcake glasses, when i met her.

That's so cool, gablerbage8! I would really like to meet Kimmy Robertson. She sounds really fun. =p

KIMMY = The bomb.

Though Penny may not be my favorite female character in Odyssey, Kimmy is definitely my favorite female actor.

chuck bolte, Andre stokja Katie leigh will ryan, jess harnell * Jess Rocks* Zach Callison, Townsend coleman Kimmy robertson. that is it. Ha Ha. But I am serious.

I loved meeting all the actors at the live show, though I exchanged words with only Chuck Bolte and Jess Harnell. It was mostly my sister who got attention, as she was wearing a birthday hat. But I did get to interview Nathan Hoobler via email, which was very fun. And I understand about the email address thing, though I do wish I could get some actor emails, simply for interviewing purposes.

They are all amazing! But I don't think I would've enjoyed the live show that much considering you only get to talk to them for a little bit.
