My goodness me, but here we are at letter 21 in my ridiculous challenge to revive the lost art of letter writing by penning one a day through 2013. Not just words, these are illustrated letters, each one containing a Ziggy Elf.
As always, I can’t show you the content as it will spoil the surprise for the receiver who today is Aalid. She is the creator of the delightfully entitled Mage and Raven, a lovely blog full of quirky creative musings. And where is this letter going? Well, it’s staying in the wintry North of England and heading to Bolton in Lancashire. And this one has wings…Raven’s wings of course.
In order to write 365 letters I need 365 people to write to. Would you like an illustrated letter with an original Ziggy Elf? All the details are here.

“Squeal” ..bounce…bounce!!!
I am pressing my nose to the letterbox in anticipation.Thank You
Aalid
I posted it this morning on the way to work. First class should get it to you tomorrow. Let’s see how good Royal Mail are.
It was waiting for me when I got home yesterday…..really made my day, beautiful illustrations, Thank You. Though I do wonder how you managed to get the elf version of my mage so close to the ‘real’ thing…magic perhaps. !!!!
So glad it got to you safely 🙂
I am mailing my letter to you today. Sorry it took so long to do so, but we had a dinner party this past Saturday, and I wanted to show-off your letter, and my response. Our guests loved both….Hansi
Oh, fabulous. I can’t wait 🙂
Does her talent know no bounds? What beautiful pen work. And many thank yous for starting a hugging party on my blog, it carried on through today! 🙂
I was actually quite proud of that raven, as I’d not done anything like it before. And yes you can’t beat a good hug.
Oh! I love your raven drawing. Russell.
Oh thank you Russell. It came out far better than I was expecting.
Too shy to ask for a letter, whooops! I just did in a roundabout way. Well, maybe you need a rest. Russell.
Russell I would be honoured to send you an illustrated letter. Just email me your postal address.
Wonderful! You’re illustrations are awesome
Oh, thank you Claudia.
And your letter is on the way 🙂
