To answer your question, Camille--the only reference I've heard to personal letters by Shakespeare was in a lecture by the Dean of English in my college. He was a Rhodes Scholar and Shakespeare was his "thing" :) IF (and that's a big if) I remember right, he said that there weren't many, they mostly dealt with financial matters, and didn't really tell us a whole lot about him. But I'll ask him next time I see him if my memory is serving me well.
