This is the photonegative of that one time Neil Gaiman tried flirting with whomever was running the Merriam-Webster twitter account.

Would you have been all that shocked if he'd risen on the third day? Caught a little off guard, sure, but SHOCKED? I think not.

I remember seeing him say that whole "if she weren't my daughter I'd probably be dating her" thing on . . . was it The View? And the hosts being way more "Oh Donald, stooop!" rather than, you know, confused or disgusted about this guy smirkingly bringing up incest right the fuck out of nowhere.

Oi! Hands!

I've been wanting this for years.

I enjoyed several of Mr. Harris' novels and love their various adaptations. Selfishly, I wish he'd publish again, but from what little I know of the man himself (which means I've read his Wikipedia entry and anecdotes from other authors who've met him), he seems to be pretty much living the life he wants.
