Gosh, I hope no one's asked this already but...

After watching The Sandman together, my husband and I are looking forward to watching Dead Boy Detectives. I've just watched the trailer and while I'm excited at the prospect of snuggling up with hubby to enjoy more of your creative genius, I'm really nervous that this show will be too much for me. While I can manage blood spurting and can even appreciate the occasional jump scare, the horror aspect is making me more than a little nervous.

Which leads me to ask...

On a scale of 1 to 10, with 1 being "Hey, let's pop some popcorn and gather the kids around the television," and 10 being "Watch in broad daylight with every curtain in your house open and every light in the house on or you'll never sleep again," how would you gauge the show and its episodes as a whole, horror-wise?

Yes, I apologize for being a wimp, (I blame my big sister for intentional exposure to "The Shining" as a 5-year old.) but I'm pretty certain you've answered a question like this kindly in the past, and I'd be most grateful.

Regardless, even if you only read this in passing and don't answer, please know that even though I'm just finding the time to get to know your work now, I have been fan of you as a human being for a long time. Thank you for all you contribute to the human race, Mr. Gaiman. There aren't enough kind people in the world.

Honestly, I'd say mostly it doesn't get scarier than a 4. It's not a horror series. It's very funny, very sweet, romantic and loving and human, sometimes painful and always weird.

Hi Neil, my 8yo daughter has asked me to ask you a question, and the frequency of her asking me to ask you has increased dramatically since she decided to dress up as the dad (who looks *suspiciously* like a certain Mr N Gaiman) from Fortunately, the Milk for World Book Day.

It is currently her favourite book, and she would like to ask if you would consider writing a sequel with her favourite food, and call it ‘Unfortunately, the Cheese’.

She does understand you’re very busy, but nevertheless requests I ask you this VERY important question. Repeatedly. So I am. Repeatedly.

Thank you for all your amazing work. It’s been so wonderful to share your work with my kids.

Tell her that right now I've got too many things to write and I'm very very sorry. But that if she wanted to write Unfortunately, the Cheese we would all love to see it. Especially if she illustrated it too.

Hello Neil,

Did you know that there are somewhere twins that are named Aziraphale and Crowley? I heard about it like a month ago, this thought still haunts me. What do you think about this?

Also hello from Russia, Neil you’re amazing

That’s my cat btw

His name is Tisha

I've heard about the twins, but do not actually believe it.
