Neil Gaiman!

In "Neil Gaiman is a really nice guy." by ZuZu for DangerMedia, Neil Gaiman is quoted in the article about his fans creative outlets while using his work for inspiration or as the basis of that output.   He says:

There isn't an official website. I don't own control over alt.fan.neil-gaiman, and the other one neilgaiman.com... It has been registered, though not by me. The guy said he'd give it to me, if ever I want it. There's The Dreaming website, which is terrific. On the whole, my perspective is, that any essays anyone wants to put up, any original art, anything like that... any tribute sites...all that kind of stuff, I have no trouble with at all. I like the fact that people are inspired, I like the fact that they put the stuff up. Once every couple of months, I waste an evening and search around, and go and look at what's there, and so on and so forth. Then I go 'Why? They're all mad!' and then I don't go and look for another 4 months. So there's that.
