I am good, thanks :D
"Recently I emailed Geoff Taylor, an illustrator who worked on a few of my favourite books (http://www.geofftaylor.btinternet.co.uk/),
asking for tips on how to illustrate, because I don't think I'm very good at it.
I also asked how much a print of the Spirit Walker map would be, as it's my favourite map from the series.
He emailed back saying that he thinks I'm very good at illustration, having seen a webcomic I have on my website (http://www.clansoul.com/), and that my style has clearly developed.
He then told me how he makes some of his illustrations, and he also told me how he made the Spirit Walker map (the whale and seals are cut out from seperate paper and just glued straight on to the original!)
He also sent me a print of the map, which looks wonderful on my wall, along with a certificate of authenticity.
Along with all that, he gave me a card with a raven drawing he'd put in Outcast, with a message inside saying
"Long live 'Gimposaurus'!
Hope it all goes well for you.
Geoff"
The print is very high quality, and if you can spare a few pennies, I strongly reccomend you get one of these wonderful pieces of artwork.
Here's a photo of it on my wall, with the certificate and the card:

Sorry about the quality of the photo, my girlfriend used her new camera and she's not quite used to it yet :]"

Ed: I understand some of this.
But it's always nice when you contact a hero and they send you stuff or they're surpisingly cool.
