   6 Happy Birthday Neil! I love all your books, well all the ones I’ve read. I’m currently doing the Dream King challenge and just read the book of short stories called Smoke and Mirrors (love it) and am currently reading The Graveyard Book. Just picked up the first Sandman at the library. Nevewhere is still my favorite because it was my first. Reply to this comment.

    11 First of all, what up with that cake???? Very very cool! Happy Birthday Mr. Gaiman! Thank you for bringing us the “other mother” (a term I love to use at the right moment in my house) and Bod! OK, so here is how much of an idiot I am. Yesterday I had to go to the park to sign my son up for tackle football next year. I knew it was first-come, first-serve, so I got there early, prepared to sit and wait, so I brought my book (a true crime ARC I was loving). I got so wrapped up in the jostling for my place in line, that I left the book and one of my beautiful bookmarks with it at the park. When I realized what I had done, I raced back to the park, but it was gone. Guess somebody else likes true crime besides me. Long story short, I would love to replace my lost bookmark!

    14 Author Comment I wish I could claim the cake. It came up in my Google Images search for birthday cake spooky. I thought it was a great fit. LOL! Heidi, like you, I wonder how Neil celebrated his birthday. Hopefully he made the most of it! Sandy, OMG about your book and bookmark. Your son owes you a bookmark for Christmas, that is for sure. LOL! Reply to this comment.
