Nothing could
be easier, but the trick to using a starter letter is that it is just that. Never
send it with out making some changes or adding some text!
The SEND
TO NAME and STAR REQUEST name will of
course need changed depending on who you are writing to and what you
Lexx Star you are requesting. Don't forget to
switch up the bio's a bit if you use them. Because it is
amazing how suspicious people become when they get identical letters from
lots of different people. 
What kind of changes you
ask? Well instead of being ‘very interested’ in attending dragon con,
you could be ‘definitely’ attending, or ‘hoping to be able to make
it’ ect… Instead of ‘dearly love to see a few panels’ you could
‘be excited at the chance to meet WHOEVER’ or ‘hoping to get
WHOEVERS’s autograph and picture.’ Ect…
Anyhow, here are a few
starter letters for you. The names of the Dragon Con Contact people, the
Bio's of the Lexx Stars are at the bottom of the page.

Sample #1
Dear Mr.
Tackett,
I am very interested in
attending Dragon Con, I looked over last years offerings and there seemed to
be a lot going on. The only thing that was missing was Lexx.
I am a huge fan of Lexx and would dearly
love to see a few panels and some of the cast at Dragon Con. After all
no one is cooler than Nigel Bennett I loved when he played Prince on
Season three and four. If you have any suggestions of who I should contact
about this, please let me know. I am really looking forward to having a
great time with my fellow Lexxians at Dragon Con 2003.
Thank You,
P.s. He also stared in Forever Knight

Sample #2
Dear Mr. Tacket,
I have heard that there may be Lexx stars and events at Dragon Con 2003. I
am a huge Lexx fan and that would definitely put Dragon Con on my list of
places to go this summer.
I hope that Brain Downey can attend. I would love to meet him. He is my
favorite character from Lexx and would be a great addition to your
convention.
I can’t wait until the
guest list goes up. I want to see if any
of the Lexx Stars are attending, so that I can order my tickets as soon as
possible.
Thanks,

From Mark M (Blueguard2)
Hello,
I am
planning on attending DragonCon over Labor Day of 2003. I have been a big
fan of science fiction for over 35 years! Among the shows I love are Babylon
5, and Farscape, but I especially love Lexx. Hope that Lexx will be well
represented at DragonCon in 2003. I would like to see invitations issued to
Brian Downey, Xenia Seeburg, Michael McManus, Nigel Bennett and especially
Ellen Dubin.
Ellen
Dubin, currently featured in Sirens of the Cinema #4 has an extensive
appearance list in Science Fiction/Fantasy genre shows including the
following: Forever Knight, Earth: Final Conflict, Lexx; Tales from a
Parallel Universe, Tammy & T-Rex (with Denise Richards), and Lexx: The
Series.
And
more recently she can found in these current shows: A Wrinkle in Time - Nov
2002, Adventure Inc. and Area 21
Ellen
is one of the most engaging stars ever, really devoted to her fans, and a
very positive person. I know she would love to come. She can be reached at
the following address: Ellen Dubin c/o Newton Landry Management 19 Isabella
Street Toronto, Ontario M4Y 1M7 Canada Her publicist is: ed wanostromassoc@hotmail.com
Thanks for reading my suggestion for a great guest! Don't forget to feature
Lexx at Dragoncon!
Thanks,
Dragon Con Contact Info
email the director of guest services John Tackett
- jtackett@bellsouth.net
email them in their
general box dragoncon@dragoncon.org
Fan Track Coordinator - Cat Mitchel marsattk1a@aol.com
Or send a letter to pellaz@attbi.com
subject: 2002 Comment File saying how disappointed you were that Lexx was not
officially represented in 2002 (doesn't matter if you were actually there or
not) and how you hope things will be better this year.
One other area you may want to try is a LETTER.
They seem to count for more than emails, they show you are really serious.
Of course I always send a email and a letter, I edit my email a bit and then
snail mail it. By the time it gets there, your original email will have been
counted and processed, so it may let them know you are really, really
serious. And sometimes they are handled by different people, so that works
too. Be brief, be nice and make sure they know how much you are looking
forward to attending. If you have already booked your room or made plane
reservations let them know that too!
