I always love to read his quotes and such things. He even got me through last year's NaNoWriMo with a pep talk he wrote for the site. The novel I've always wanted to start with is Stardust, yet I can never seem to find it in the bookstores! I haven't seen the film, but I know just enough about the story after seeing the previews. I didn't know the storylines of any of the others, so this post definitely helped to educate me!Casee Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03999612353056722044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1928954779801735932.post-51491584828173399002010-10-08T09:36:19.181-05:002010-10-08T09:36:19.181-05:00This page couldn't load fast enough for me onc...This page couldn't load fast enough for me once i saw the title of the post! Neil Gaiman is my favorite author and he writes fairy tales for a modern world. Love, love, love to Neil Gaiman. He's getting married to Amanda Palmer (of Dresden Dolls fame) and that is one wedding that I would love to help design/be at/see photos of...<br /><br />Try "Good Omens," which he wrote with Terry Pratchett. He's also written an episode of "Doctor Who" which will be airing in the new season.laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10786907138463447140noreply@blogger.com
