tigerbright pointed me to Neil Gaiman's most recent
blog post, where among other things he mentions the humidity damage to a number of copies of his new kid book due to a storm named Sandy. The publisher has already started making good to people who got humidity-rippled copies, and both he and the publisher have apologised (damn you chellspecker, he's British, you'll
learn it!).
I turned to her and asked, "But what I want to know is, has Superstorm Sandy called him up to apologize to
him?"
Yes, I do consider him to be a force of nature in odd and mysterious ways.
