    Hello Elizabeth:
    We are so thrilled for you!!

    We have enjoyed having a look at the children's online magazine and thought your drawings totally magical. The magazine is certainly quite a scary read, but then children in our experience rather enjoy being frightened by things that they know cannot harm them.

    We regard Zillah as something of a cautionary character and, as a result, are resolved to cut back on the Gin and Tonics. We should not wish to end up looking like him.

    That aside, we do feel that in these very difficult times, you must feel so greatly encouraged to have this commission. It is no more than you deserve and may it bring you many more.

    This illustration, as well as your others in the magazine, are so well done and just the right amount of darkly funny!
