So excited!

I just booked tickets for hubby and I to see Neil Gaiman in Nashville in July during his upcoming tour for his new book, "The Ocean at the End of the Lane". We get a book along with the price of the ticket, and hopefully he will do a signing after.

We just missed him in Florida because we moved two weeks before he appeared there in support of "Coraline". I sent my son the money to buy the book, he went and got it autographed for us.

*sigh* I know that Neil Gaiman is not everyone's cup of tea, but Hubby and I had many conversations about his work while we were dating online. (Hubby recommended him to me.) If I had to confess, I'm a little in love with NG, and am so very happy to have this opportunity.

It gives me something to look forward to besides the twins. Something just for us.

I hadn't heard of him, but I will say he's good looking. ;)

I'm so happy you're getting to see him! It's always a thrill to hear someone whose work you adore read from it and talk about it. I spied a friend of mine reading "Good Omens" yesterday and impressed him by quoting heavily from it. Gaiman's a writer of great imagination, and he's someone whose success I'm glad to see. Have fun!!

Eeee! How exciting! I had the amazing opportunity to meet Mr. Gaiman a few months ago while he was traveling with the Unchained Tour. He's a brilliant storyteller and an all-together nice man. He signed my copy of The Graveyard Book - see??
