Hi everybody, I have decided to make AJ a poem book. I originally was only going to fill it with my own poems, but
I think it would be better if it was filled with not only my poems, but the poems of his fans.
So I am asking you to sumbit your poems for AJ. I have limited space, so I might not be able to
use every poem I receive, but I will do my best. If you have any questions or you wish you sumbit
a poem, send them directly to me at swtd7@hotmail.com. When you send your poem, you may also
include a note to AJ if you wish, but please keep them brief as the more pages I use for each
poem, the less poems I can include and I would like to include as many as I can. Due to school
beginning for me in two weeks, I am not sure when I will get the book done, but as a curtosy to you,
once the book is finished and on it's way, I will e-mail everybody who had a poem in the book so
you know the book,did indeed, get sent to AJ.
I also need idea's for the cover of the book. A title and what, if anything, should be put on the
cover. If you have pictures, you can submit them, but please be aware of the size. Also, if they are
of yourself with AJ or at a concert or whatever the picture might be, include a caption for it.
As to exacly what sort of book I make, I am unsure about. I plan to go to the store here that sells
hobby and craft things t see what I can find. But the book will be made with care and to the best of
my ability. I do not have a scanner or anything, so I will not be able to show a picture of the
finished book, however, when I send out the notice when the book is sent, I will be glad to tell you
what it looks like.
So many people have sent AJ cards and letters andpoems, but this book would be more than a letter
or poem, it will be a collection of poems that come straight from the heart of some of his fans. We
all love AJ a lot and I can't think of a better way to show it so please submit your poems to me and
help me in the making of a book that AJ will hopefully love and keep for years to come.
Thank you.
The e-mail again is swtd7@hotmail.com.
Desiree
(Please talk to me before posting this anywhere else. I don't know how much space for poems I will
have and don't want to have to leave anybody's poems off if I don't have to.)

Dear AJ:
I've been a fan of Backstreet Boys since my parents let me listen to other music besides Christian. When I heard the knews that you were sick I cryed. I think the whole world did. It seems I cant get enough of your music, let along your pictures and you TV shows. I wish you nothin but good health and a great rest. I love the Backstreet Boys and each and every one of you hold a differnt place in my heart. I know Im only one out of maybe 3 million that has sent this kind of leter, but the way I see it, if one more makes a difference than so be it. I cant wait to see the Backstreet Boys on TRL, The Late Show, or even on the local news. Good luck and God Bless!Love Always

Seeking treatment is the bravest thing that a person could possibly do. That's because you're admitting to having a problem (which there is nothing wrong with that)and wanting to change. There are some wonderful daily self help books that will help you through this. I read one everyday and it has helped me realize alot of things about myself. Who cares what other people think of all this. It's you're business and your life. So take all the time you need to sort things out. Keep up the faith and best wishes to you.

AJ/Alex,Baby, I watched that 20/20 thing, and I totally understand how you feel. It's not easy doing what you do, being in the spotlight all the time. Hopefully you will be able to come back stronger than ever. And just so you know, you don't have to be the "bad boy" for us fans, we like you for YOU! For Alex! God bless you baby forever and always.
Luv,

Dear Alex, I'm so sorry that I didn't e-mail you for two days. I've been really busy. But each day I've still prayed for you and kept you in my thoughts. I was babysitting and missed your mothers interview and felt so horrible. So this morning I went to NBC.com read the story and printed it. It's so sad the things that you went through. But I know that you're strong and courageous and will overcome these things. I pray for the day that you return to being the happy Alexander James McLean. Just know that A&F I'll Luv U! You'll always be No.1 in my eyes! Take care babe! Luv U!
