Blog: Requesting information translation, please. In GO, when the kids are talking about ice cream and Pepper says there aren’t 32 flavors of ice cream in the whole world, does the UK really not sell a whole lot of different flavors? (Or perhaps does now but didn’t when it was written?) Or is that supposed to reflect Adam’s whole affecting-the-world thing, where he’s familiar with the flavors he sees in cartoons and that’s about it? from
Neil Gaiman in the group Fans of Neil Gaiman 2 years, 10 months agoIn the UK I grew up in there were only three ice cream flavours – vanilla, chocolate and pink. For sophisticates, there was something called Neopolitan which was […]

Blog: hello mr. gaiman. happy 2022. I was wondering if within the GO universe there is a way for angels to die in a similar way to demons with holy water? In the first great rebellion, were the only casualties freshly fallen demons? from
Neil Gaiman in the group Fans of Neil Gaiman 2 years, 10 months agoYes, Hellfire. (See the end of episode 6.)

Blog: i hope no one has asked before, but i was wondering: in one episode of Good Omens one of the demons mentions that selfies were invented by Crowley. Were they actually invented by him, or were they another thing invented by humans that he took credit for? from
Neil Gaiman in the group Fans of Neil Gaiman 2 years, 10 months agoIt’s fair to say that Hell believes Crowley invented Selfies. Let’s leave it at that.

Blog: Maybe it was answered before, but… do Crowley, Aziraphale and angels and demons speak English and always have been (even before English existed)? Because initially I thought that maybe celestial beings could just speak whatever and being understood by mortals, but the scene in France where Aziraphale has poor French proves me wrong. Also, in the book people mistake Aziraphale for English and that means he indeed has a British accent. And in the series he knows some Japanese. This means that on Earth he speaks the languages that he knows, and that being an angel doesn’t mean knowing every language. So… maybe English in the series is both the language they eventually learn as it evolves on Earth and the language we listen to as an audience when the times are old and the language is unknown to humankind? I hope I was clear, I’m sorry if I wasn’t. And I also know that this is fiction and it doesn’t matter if there is an answer, I’m just curious. from
Neil Gaiman in the group Fans of Neil Gaiman 2 years, 10 months agoI think you can assume that they are speaking whatever the local language is, fluently, and in the opening scene they are speaking the language of Angels. As for […]

Blog: Thank you for writing kids books that are both adorable and that I’m unlikely to get sick of after repetitive readings. Picture of my 2.5yo son with his permission and his Chu’s Day books. from
Neil Gaiman in the group Fans of Neil Gaiman 2 years, 10 months agoAww. That’s what the kids books are for. They’re for kids but they’re also for parents who may have to read them each several times a day.

Blog: Hi Mr. Gaiman! I really enjoyed the theme song for “Good Omens,” it was actually what made me want to watch the show since it was the first exposure I had to it via an ad I saw. Since I’m a harpist, I decided to learn how to play it on the harp, as I thought it would sound really fun on the harp. After working on it for a long time(it was rather difficult!), I finally was ready to record it for my YouTube channel. I hope it’s not too much of a bother for me to ask, but could you listen to it? It would mean a lot if you did. I’m sorry if the link doesn’t work, I haven’t sent an ask before. https://youtu.be/hHg7kKUcIpA Also, I wanted to say that your “Norse Mythology” is one of my favorite books; it made me really happy to listen to you read the audiobook as it really brought the stories to life. Thank you for your time 🙂 from

Matthew Brown replied to the topic How often should I publish on a blog? in the forum General Chat 2 years, 10 months ago
Like most things, it comes down to practice.
If you are new to blogging, aim for something you know that you can manage and slowly ramp it up as you get better at it.
The only exception to this is when starting a new blog. Write four or more great posts that go live the moment the site is opened. Otherwise, you are launching the site naked. Make…Read more

The writing community is pretty big on Twitter. I’m not sure if anyone sells more books on Twitter. At 40k to 50k follows publishers and agents start to take note. I guess that means follows = sales.
