My dear Neil Gaiman, now that the writers' strike has finally come to an end, do we have any confirmation on the third season of Good Omens? Please, Neil... even if there is no continuation of the series, we need the end of the story. We count on you! And FOR GOD'S SAKE, I need a happy ending for Aziraphale and Crowley! Preferably, with Azi doing the "I'm sorry dance" for Crowley and finally returning that kiss from the second season :) <3

When Season 3 is officially commissioned everyone will know.

It hasn't been yet.

Currently the sets are still standing in Bathgate, and I'm beginning to write more episodes.

Well shit

I miss when I could get reassured :/

How very depressing that Neil Gaiman had trended not even a tiny bit for demonstrating what a fucking horrific person he is.

As a reminder, he's suing Caroline Wallner, one of his accusers, for breaking her NDA. Not for libel. He's saying she shouldn't have told anyone about it, not that she lied.

Neil Gaiman Seeks $500,000 From Accuser Caroline Wallner

The author says Wallner broke her NDA by sharing her story with the media, including with New York Magazine.

He doesn't need the money. He's risking the Streisand effect. He is punishing Caroline, he's trying to intimidate other victims who have signed NDAs to scare them into continued silence.

He is no friend to women, to the LGBTQIA+ community, to anyone quite frankly unless he thinks they are of value to him.

Share the story. Put it on Facebook and bluesky and whatever else you're on. Make it clear what a horrifying person he is. Tell your friends. He's paying Edendale a fortune to try and cover this up. Make this hard for him. Make it cost him money.

The Rainbow Railroad is helping gay men escape Chechen concentration camps. They need our help.

WHO THEY ARE:

“Rainbow Railroad receives hundreds of requests for help every year from countries where LGBT individuals are open targets of violence. Because the volume of requests is so high, we focus our efforts on assisting LGBT people who have faced physical violence or face an imminent threat of violence, imprisonment, or death. We have been successful in helping individuals from the Caribbean, Africa and Middle East where we have local networks to support and validate cases.”

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO HELP?

“The costs range as every case is unique. Sometimes the individual has the resources to help themselves and they just need information and support from us to make a move.  In these cases, the cost to Rainbow Railroad is staff and volunteer time to research and provide information.  In cases where they need financial support to get to safety, it costs about $5000 to cover flights and other related costs.”

To my tiny beanie baby self, who smiles at cats and loses a tooth by biting cotton candy. You don’t understand why things have happened the way they do, and neither do I, but maybe the words of this trusted adult will help ❣️

Mr. Gaiman, I know you mostly get asks about Good Omens these days, but I am a long-time fan. Of your work Coraline. I am a survivor of severe parental neglect and abuse, and I must have read the book hundreds of times in my childhood and I found great comfort in the movie, despite my now complicated feelings about Time Burton as a person. I guess I just wanted to thank you for creating a piece of art that made me feel less alone in my very isolated adolescence.

Do you have any advice for healing after such a traumatic start to life?

I'm glad Coraline has helped. (Tim Burton didn't have anything at all to do with the Coraline movie though.)

When I was young I believed that the way you healed was just to move on. Now I'm 63 and you realize that stuff never heals on its own. It's still there, waiting to jump out at you. But there are things that help: other people help, especially other people it's safe to talk to. Building a life can help. And making art out of trauma. That's good too.

I wished Coraline had been around when I was a child, and that was why I wrote it as an adult.
