Neil Gaiman will be signing The Graveyard Book in Easons in Dublin on 30th October. I will certainly be going to that!

Check out when there's a signing near you.

I was going to post that! I'm currently trying to arrange an interview with him while he's over: he's happy to do it, but the people who are actually going to do the arranging of his schedule are taking their own good time getting back to me...

Ooo, I was wondering if he was going to make it to these shores or whether he was just staying on GB this time round. I think that calls for a jaunt down, even if it does mean taking some time off work. :)

This is the thing I perhaps miss the most about living in Dublin - I am no longer at the centre of the universe for visiting foreigners. No more authors making one city stop visits to entire countries in the shop down the road. No more start-of-world-tour gigs for €20 where you're close enough to slap the singer silly if he gets the words wrong because they're using your gig to continue rehearsing. No more "I see no one famous in this town. Oh, there's Eddie Jordan" moments (and the latter has actually happened to me, down the back of Grafton street one day).

Gaiman is not coming to Birmingham. Booo.

I've forgotten when you're living now. Is Manchester any use to you?

It's about as far away as London - and since family are in London, given the choice between the two London it is! (I live in Brum)
