The best thing about British democracy is when the actual head of government has to stand in a leisure centre at 5 am beside a guy with a bin on his head to find out if he still has a job.

Dear @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com - I did read "A Game Of You" after your discussion with Wetwickwork some time ago. I believe I understand what upset them and, learning that you're now filming it, I believed it was worth letting you know, so there is chance for change. msknight.co.uk/reviews/070....

I've read the 30th anniversary collection, now I guess it's time to watch the first series.

I don't think I'll be buying a chinese car. If you think it starts bad, wait until 4:13 - braking failed, airbags not deployed, doors refused to open and so those inside burned to death. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Hpk...

If you have a youngster who is thinking of starting smoking, then this is a good education that might help them stop doing it in the first place. I had a hard time stopping and wish I'd never started. Hindsight is always 20/20. www.youtube.com/watch?v=HD__...

The new copies of Check Mate dropped on the door this morning. The old ones had too much swearing in them, and I disobeyed the cardinal rule to put the manuscript aside, in my eagerness to get my book out there. Took 9 years to right that mistake. Better late than never.

I'm not a fan of GoodReads hence I was on BookLikes until it died. However, it recently came up long enough for me to get my reviews off it. I've now put them on my own site and I'm going to start reviewing books again. Enjoy :-) msknight.co.uk/reviews/inde...

"Check Mate" will take about 72 hours to propagate on Smashwords and Amazon, with the print following on from that. For the moment, only the publishers own site is updated.

@neilhimself.neilgaiman.com I thought I would take a moment to thank you for answering my inane writing questions over the last few months. I've now re-written one of my books and I'm much happier with it. Thank you for the support you give people. It is much appreciated. I'll leave you in peace :-)

To the three people who bought "Check Mate" from my publishers store; you can now log in and re-download the updated book in a variety of DRM free formats. My other books will be re-worked in due course. New ISBN and print versions will be a few more days. Enjoy :-) fiction4all.com/ebooks/b8969...

Haha amazing theshovel.com.au/2024/04/23/e...

Elon Musk – Dead at 52 – Says There Is No Need for Misinformation Laws — The Shoveltheshovel.com.au The X owner, who is believed to have died from a heroin overdose, said he would fight any attempts to stop the spread of misinformation on his platform.

For some years @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com I've used hive.co.uk to buy and support bookshops. It's a bit sad that my nearest local independent bookshop in their network is more than 11 miles away in Lewes. (yes, I live in a small village and think of you whenever I drive past Ardingly College)

Jumanji. Next to Bicentenial Man, my favourite Robin Williams film. I decided to buy it in BluRay and in the specials were the first two of the 40 episode animated series. Complete series for £15 from the USA. Makes a change from all the weak spin offs that are coming out of hollywood these days.

Reflective nuts. Hmm... I don't think I'll take that onto the airwaves.

Hello and welcome to Ennui Soup.

I know this is going to be a subjective question @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com but what are your thoughts on all-caps and italics for emphasis in a novel? What is "overdoing it?" I'm concluding that writing is a, "dance," between reader and author, that happens to the flow of the imagination, "music."

Still working on the final re-read before sending to the publisher next week, to update the book. This is tiring work.

Amazon continue to fail hard. If this is the result of artificial intelligence, then I don't think we need to worry too much about AI taking over the planet.

A friend wrote a book, so I did what all good friends do... bought a copy ;-)
