Un nouveau Gaiman c'est toujours une bonne nouvelle
Ce petit garçon à tricycle élevé par les habitants d'un cimetière je trouve ça très "burtonien" et franchement intriguant !

J'adore ce type d'intrigue qui favorise souvent un humour noir, mais sympathique ! Cela m'évoque un peu Anthony Horowitz, mais sans doute à la sauce Gaiman ! Bref, je salive d'avance.

Bonne nouvelle effectivement, un nouveau Gaiman est un évenement en soit

S'il pouvait changer un peu de la veine American Gods/Anansi Boys, ce ne serait pas plus mal en tout cas...

This morning I had my photograph taken in (among other places) a graveyard by photographer Phillipe Matsas, and I flashed back to GOOD OMENS, when Terry and I had our author photos taken in Kensal Green Cemetery, which meant that every second American newspaper that photographed us had arranged a trip to the local graveyard. And I thought "My next book is The Graveyard Book," and realised with a sinking feeling that too much of 2008 will be spent in graveyards trying to find an appropriate facial expression...

Avant de nous rencontrer, donc...
Des détails sur ce roman dans l'interview !

Heu il est un peu spécial le nouveau Gaiman...je crois que le lien marche pas top 

En tout cas, je comprends qu'il hésite à écrire dans ce carnet ! Il a l'air vraiment superbe.
Et deux fois plus long que Coraline... Ca ne promet que du bon !

Sur le pourquoi de l'absence de ratures sur son carnet...

The most frequently asked question currently, in regard to the photos of the book I'm writing The Graveyard Book in, is (for example) In seeing the post about The Graveyard Book in which you show us your handwritten version in the fancy Italian book, I noticed that you haven't crossed out a word. Did you pick a particularly good page to show us, or do you simply have no need to cross out as you write? If the latter is true, you will make writers everywhere very jealous and variants, like I have a similar one where i write my poetry in, and I was wondering, considering the fact that you're writing a first draft in it, if you scratch out page-length text if you dont feel like they should be included in your story, or rip out pages, or something of the like that would ruin the neatness of the whole blank book and render it less "beautiful", since I myself wouldn't have the heart to.

I found myself mostly remembering Aubrey's comment on Jonson talking about Shakespeare and how much better it would have been if Shakespeare, who didn't, actually had crossed some stuff out.

If I'm writing fiction by hand I'll put a loose line through something that I'm definitely not going to use (but I'd never pull it out, and I'd normally want it to be readable in case I change my mind, or in case there's something there I can use). But it's pure first draft, straight out of the head and onto the page, sort of like this blog. The important thing is moving forward, for me: editing, fixing, tidying, leaving stuff out, that's all for when I put it onto the computer, that's all for the second draft.

Et Gaiman en est maintenant à la moitié, ou peu s'en faut :

I have almost -- almost, so close I can taste it -- finished the "Danse Macabre" story, which means I'm over half way through the Graveyard Book. Now the plot starts...

I started typing The Graveyard Book today. I'm chugging my way through chapter one. Starting to recover from Comic-con although it's not yet ten o'clock and I'm ready to sleep already...

Après l'avoir rédigé à la main, Neil Gaiman a commencé à taper son prochain roman.
