Ce n'était pas la peine de lui rappeler ça, ce n'est pas vous qui allez le supporter juste avant.Publivore a écrit :almaarea a écrit :Je suis également nerveuse à l'idée me retrouver face à lui, du genre "et si mon accent anglais est vraiment trop affreux et qu'il ne comprend rien à mon bredouillant" I'm very hapy to meet you, I love your books" ?". Bref, je fais suer tout le monde autour de moi avec çaImagine si comme Gillo tu devais le rencontrer pendant 1/4H, alors !!! Ce serait révision totale de la méthode Assimil, parce que les phrases toutes faites sont relativement insuffisantes
Vive les traducteurs, mais bonjour le stress à l'avance !

En fait, j'ai deux approches... :)Je pense avoir un bon accent, voire un très bon - enfin, dans la mesure où ça sonne forcément toujours un peu français - mais... pas en public. :mrgreen:Donc, soit j'arrive à me lâcher quitte à être ridicule malgré tout, soit je vais me retrouver à parler anglais à la façon de mon avatar. ;)Pour le moment, j'écoute l'audiobook de Stardust.

Malheureusement, la plupart des autres oeuvres de Gaiman ont pour moi des points communs avec Neverwhere, mais moins avec Stardust, qui reste une véritable particularité !Ca ne coûte rien d'essayer De bons présages cependant, qui emporte généralement l'adhésion des lecteurs, surtout si tu aimes les ouvrages drôles... mais il n'y a pas de féérie comme dans Stardust !

Même 24h après je n'en profite toujours pas...
:(Dommage qu'on n'ait pas pu, comme Neil Gaiman le souhaitait lui-même, faire ses interviews dans un coin plus calme que sur le stand lui-même... Même si les gens du Diable sont très sympathiques... :)L'interview retranscrite ne sera pas en ligne avant mercredi je pense. PS : Tsss, la signature sur le DVD de Mirrormask s'efface déjà...

Tiens, ça te rappelle quelque chose, cette nouvelle, Zeb ? ;)On sait ce que c'est précisément maintenant !Le blog de Neil Gaiman a écrit :I finished the short story (a fictional love letter) today, at least in first draft. I think it needs some tweaking before it works, so I shall try not to read it until tomorrow, and then when I read it, I will pretend that I have never read it before...

Le poisson d'avril du Locus Magazine était franchement... 

Neil Gaiman One Step Closer to Sainthood by L. Ron Creepweans --------------------------------------------------------------------------------VATICAN CITY - Today the Roman Curia announced that the beatification of Neil Gaiman had been completed, putting the writer one step closer to the official recognition of his sainthood. These steps were carried out despite the fact that Gaiman himself has repeatedly denied being a saint, pointing out that he was not Catholic, not really religious and, most importantly, not dead. "Really, I'm not dead," said Gaiman when reached at his home. "Not even the slightest little bit. This whole sainthood thing has become something of a bother, with little old women with rosaries joining the usual contingent of Goth girls holding vigils on the west lawn. If you happen to run into Pope Benedict XVI, please tell him that the whole thing is quite silly and somewhat inconvenient." However, Vatican spokesman Cardinal Bertoli insisted that Gaiman had met the church's stringent requirement of three miracles necessary for sainthood. "First, we have a report of a signing at DreamHaven Books, where by mistake his publisher had only shipped one 20 book carton of Anansi Boys, but into which the Venerable Gaiman had reached his hand again and again to pull out book after book, until all 500 patrons had received their copies, all of which were first printings and entirely free of shipping damage." Bertoli noted that the second miracle involved a girl in Los Angeles who had been cured of her terminal cancer after a copy of Volume 9 of The Collected Sandman (The Kindly Ones) had been laid against her brow. Finally, Bertoli said he had documented proof that Gaiman had single-handedly fed all of Paraguay in 1987. "Truly the Holy Ghost works though the Venerable Gaiman's hands." "I do wish they would just drop this whole saint thing," said Gaiman. "It's quite a distraction to always have people wanting to touch the hem of your leather jacket or try to pluck out hairs for relics. It's gotten to the point where it's starting to interfere with my hectic schedule of writing books, signing signature sheets, writing comics, going on book tours, writing movies, filming movies, writing song lyrics, cashing large checks and healing the sick." Gaiman paused. "Wait, did I just say healing the sick? Strike that. No sick comma healing of going on here. "Now you'll have to excuse me," he said politely, "I have to finish a miracle. Uh...that is...a Miracle...man...comic script. Yes, that's it." Though it won't be made official until his canonization is complete, Vatican officials were leaning toward making Gaiman Patron Saint of Relieving Hand Cramps.

En même temps, c'est pas si loin de la vérité, il apporte tellement de bonheur à ses lecteurs, encore plus à ses lectrices (;)), il a ce talent pour chasser les nuages noirs de la monotonie et de l'ennui, il réchauffe les coeurs, il multiplie les héros charmants et les livres qui vous marquent...et si c'était vrai...?
