The Irony and the Ecstasy
Remember the APPROVED BY THE COMICS CODE AUTHORITY seal? It used to be on pretty much every comic published by a mainstream publisher. It showed that the comic contained no horror, no references to drugs, no… well, there was a list of things that the comic had to do and not do.

springtimevoodoo asked: I told my 7 year old (who has several of your books) that you were going to be on The Simpsons next month.

noswayze asked: Among my favorite authors, you seem to be the nicest one of them all. I'd like to know how you handle/react to negative reviews from professional critics or even just the average reader. Was it any different when you first started getting published?

WatchThe Kickstarter has 54 hours to go. It’s more than made its financial goal (we’ve made five times as much as we needed to professionally record all the shows), so I’m not pushing it for that.

huntsmonsters asked: Hey Neil! I love your work, and your work is what got me into Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab. I found them through your collaborations with them. Do you have any more planned for the future? I can tell you for myself and many others that a Sandman line would get snapped up in no time flat!
wallywest-s asked: Holy crap, I love your books. I was happily shocked when I found you on tumblr. As an aspiring author--a little advice, perhaps?

lonelydork asked: So Neil - would you think I'm a jerk if I'm not into your lovely wife's music? I've tried, I really have. But I just don't enjoy it. I respect what she does, and I think she's a badass, though.
graculus asked: Hello! I was debating with my friend about where Aziraphale stands in Christian angel hierarchy, since in Good Omens it's mentioned he's a Principality but it was Cherubims that guarded the eastern gate of Eden. I was wondering if you could help clarify his position?

It goes out in the US on November 20th. I play writer Neil Gaiman. Like I did on Arthur and The Guild.
thepaladog asked: What sort of dogs do you have? They look sort of like Carolina dogs, which are rather rare and rather my favorites.
seanchaidh101 asked: What is the... thing that you are holding in your Sept 25 picture?
According to the dogs, something very interesting lives in this hollow tree. View more on WhoSay »

Look! KIDS! Free stuff! →
Just to point out that there are LOTS of short stories, audio files, videos and peculiar bits at Neilgaiman.com in the COOL STUFF department. You should go and explore. Share and Enjoy, as Douglas Adams said, in another context, about something totally different.

Blog: Not Just Procrastinating →
Right. I just put up a blog. Not actually sure if I should link to it here on Tumblr or not - would hate to swamp people with random posts of stuff they can find elsewhere on the web. But it’s a good blog filled with stuff.
