Neil Gaiman had a Great Fall He was the storyteller, the wise man, the one who delivered New Year’s messages with the authority of a sage. The one who took dreams and fairy dust and spun them into stories. He was my teacher. How ...

Just me, remembering that most heroes will fail us.

This is the last year I will encourage students to enter the Scholastic Art and Writing Awards. What a f-ing mess.

NYT Strands today. WTF.

Do you guys not even have ONE Jewish friend to consult with? One?

Here ya go: 🥇

There’s a special circle of hell for the creator of today’s Connections puzzle.

I thought the CEO assassin was an angry parent whose kid was denied coverage for lifesaving medication. Because that would track.

But now I’m pretty sure it isn’t for multiple reasons.

Whole lotta dry eyes for the United Healthcare CEO. Just sayin.

Nothing like getting a book published to inspire you to write another one. #amwriting

Thank you @booksandbooks.bsky.social for this book launch tonight!

My high school English teacher wrote a memoir. Her pre-teen son was diagnosed with cancer, and then, in a bizarre cascading trauma, she was also diagnosed with cancer. I recently celebrated a family wedding they both attended in health and good spirits. Check it out.

My book is out today!!

An Afternoon with Adina Ciment Locally-owned, independent neighborhood bookstore

Yeah but I need the back story on that one.

Also, @alexjaffe.bsky.social, I just found out about Arm Fall Off Boy and I can’t believe I don’t find out about that from you.

Ah. Makes sense.

…and people who work in comics

I was today years old when I learned why you shouldn’t ride a razor scooter with a long skirt.

This didn’t age well…

Hey! I have a book coming out!

@alexjaffe.bsky.social In the middle but loving this. Thanks for the rec!

I support a state that has offered statehood to her neighbors numerous times, withdrew from the Gaza Strip in the name of peace, and protects every religion. Palestinians are citizens, work in Israel and can travel. Have you ever actually been to Israel? How can you defend Hamas?

Are you well? You’re seriously comparing a butchering massacre of civilians to people in prison for crimes? No. That isn’t the same at all. If you care about Palestinians, free Gaza from Hamas. Why would you support a terrorist state?

Those detainees were arrested. A bit different than babies and grandmothers in their homes. Or kids at a music festival.

So is “Return the Hostages.”

@neilhimself.neilgaiman.com I heard you once speak at a book signing and you mentioned an article that proposed making NYT bestsellers a one-time thing. That way more writers could get the exposure they needed. Do you recall that? Was that an article you wrote? Where can I find that?

Are you actually serious? Attacking teens at a music festival. Raping women. Killing grandmothers. Perhaps use your flaccid Jewish plea to ask the terrorists to free the 150 hostages.

I want a Coraline house.

At Halloween Horror Nights and thinking that an @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com house is long overdue. Can that happen?

One day. It will happen. You will see.

Also @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com, I can totally create a compelling PowerPoint presentation explaining why you should follow me. Let me know.
