Neil thanked him in a foreword

Neil Gaiman thanked a writer for writing like an angel in the beginning of one of his graphic novel sandmans, and the author had a book I liked, this was over 15 years ago and can’t remember who he was, ring any bells? Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask.

Graphic novel about a girl with the hairy guy

I read this graphic novel as a kid and i’ve been searching online but I just can’t find what it was called. All I know is it was by Neil Gaiman and was about this girl with short blond hair I think and she had a friend who was like all hair with glasses 😭

If anyone knows the title it would be greatly appreciated

Edit: Just realized I was mistaken and it is only by the illustrator that has worked with Neil Gaiman on some of his books, Chris Riddell! The book is “Ottoline and the Yellow Cat.”

Neil Gaiman Reader on sale today

The Kindle version of the Neil Gaiman Reader is currently on sale at Amazon, for $1.99. I'm not familiar enough with all of his stories. Is there anything new here that is not in his short story collections or other works?

Do you think Neil Gaiman would make a great voice actor?

His narrations and dramatic readings of his literary works are really good. They never feel flat, dry or unpleasant to listen to. But is this a good indicator of his voice-over acting abilities?

I am thinking about this.

you when edwin met sinom in that library thing in the doll house episode and he is ripping out pages out of a book.

so sinom says that he liked edwin in his blue hat but all of the flashbacks (apart from when he met charles) were in black and white and the one flashback that is charles was protecting that kid that was getting bullyed (thats how I spell it) one of the bully's had a blue hat and if I remember we don't see anyone else with a blue hat.

ok I don't know about anyone else but I noticed

that edwin looks more pale in his face then charles , I don't know if its the actor's skin colour or something.

in some scenes's I guess that they used different light's and colour effects and colour blending etc.

Why is delirium associated with fish?

Just a general question from someone who knows of her and her role but only seen the show.

Neil Gaiman-adjacent authors

I love Neil Gaiman, but I’m running out of his books and stories to read. My favorites are American Gods, The Graveyard Book, Neverwhere and Ocean at the End of the Lane. Anyone have recommendations for authors who have a similar style or vibe? Any help would be much appreciated.

American Gods is fantastic!!

Neil Gaiman's novel "American Gods" is absolutely amazing!

I've only read one chapter, but I'm already hooked—his imagination is just so rich!

I wish for a new Endless story -- Desire for President!

I really wish Mr. Gaiman would write a new Endless story in which it would appear that Desire was running for president of the United States of America, but it ended up being Delerium.

American Gods

I've recently finished reading American Gods and I'm watching the Series. I've noticed that even though Neil Gaiman has a lot of say in what goes in the show. So my question is why does he change things? Any insight?

Finished up my Neil Gaiman stippling the other day after 20 hours of work! Turned out very well, though it doesn’t transfer quite as well through a phone pic. I have a question about fan mail and autographs in the post body if anyone is able to help out

I want to get a print done of the drawing, and then I was hoping to send it to Neil in the mail and see if he’d be able to autograph it (maybe with a second copy as a gift). I read on the FAQs that he doesn’t do book signings in the mail, but does anyone know if he’d do art signings? If so, what address should I send it to?

World Building

I just need to gush about Neil Gaiman’s world building skill for a moment.

I recently watched (well, more like binged) the Sandman show in Netflix. The moment I saw that Neil wrote the book it was based on and was a big part of the tv show production, I knew I’d love it.

I’ve seen (mostly of) American Gods, Good Omens, and now The Sandman. All of these take religious and mythological references and integrate them in a modern setting. And in each one it’s done so well!

It feels like each of these universes were already in existence before the reader/viewer came into contact with it. And it feels like these universes continue to go on once you’ve finished. It’s just so amazing, I’m in love.

A little help with Stardust

Does anyone remember which chapter or page it was that Tristran remarks that he doesn't remember the colour of Victoria Forersters eyes? I need to quote it for an essay and I can't find that moment.

Thank you
