you might be interested in this Slashdot story:

"In the days before the internet, Heinlein's solution was to create a
list of frequently asked questions, answer them, and remove the
questions. Then he, or rather his wife Ginny, checked off the
appropriate answer(s) and mailed it back. Some of the entries in
Heinlein's answer sheet are quite illuminating and amusing. Our
personal favorite: 'You say that you have enjoyed my stories for
years. Why did you wait until you disliked one story before writing to
me?'"
