Neil Gaiman

[glen]

Never read any of his stuff, but apparently, he is really popular and creative.
He is staying at my house this weekend.
What should I read of his before he gets here?

American Gods and Good Omens. The Thief of Always.

 

[chowderhead]

American Gods. Ask him what's going on with the HBO adaptation.

That's Larry Niven. Still worth reading though.

Good call SandEagle. I never saw that other thread. I don't get where the OP is going with this though. What's the joke exactly?

That is Golden.

 

[glen]

It is actually no joke.
I don't typically read PN threads here.

I didn't really like American Gods. I heard Sandman was good though.

Pics or shens. If for real, ask him if he's going to write another Doctor Who episode. He wrote one of the best ones last season.

OK, I'll post a picture Sunday.

However, it is pretty easy to figure out I live in Charleston, and he is touring here.

make sure he's holding a sign. i don't trust you. anyone can google a random image and say 'hey look at me standing next to Neil Gaiman'.

for example, hey look at me standing next to Neil Gaiman!

Audio book (while you fap or sleep). 😉

Do you watch Doctor Who?

Doctor Who S06E04 - The Doctor's Wife Doctor was written by him. It's a really good episode.

 

[glen]

I think I would like his stuff.
I just have not read anything.
I also hear a lot of good stuff about Dr. Who.
I guess after Treme and BoardwalkEmpire, I will start on Dr. Who.

i laughed like an immature kid when i first heard his name...

"seriously?! his name sounds like a command... 'kneel, gay man!'... hahaha"

 

[MonKENy]

WHy is he staying at your house out of curiosity?

 

[olds]

Don't drop the soap.

 

[glen]

I dunno. He can certainly afford a hotel. I think it is just part of the tour - being out with the people. Intentional involvement with people add an antidote or complement to social media.

 

[Ancalagon44]

Read the Sandman.

When I picked up the phone, American Gods, Good Omens, and Anansie Boys were all within 10 feet. I need to read the Sandman stuff. He also partly wrote the 2007 Beowulf movie.
