Oscar recap & Cabal nominees...

March madness, but in a non-sports way...
Neil was here for the Oscars and it spun me right 'round like a record, bay-bee.

We outfitted him in beautiful threads, Kambriel and Dior...

my favorite getting-ready shot:







the golden ticket:




He made the LA Times...

He doodled for charity, click here for outcome:






the Hollywood hotel he was staying at had a life-size chess board in the courtyard:



and a delicious rooftop pool:



Neil left LA to continue his multi-destination run, which he recounts over HERE.

Meanwhile I left and did the Yo Gabba Gabba US/Canada tour which you can read about
HERE.

Before I left, I put up a Cabal contest, and here are the finalists...
so so many good ones, you talented world, it was extremely difficult to narrow down to these finalists...

If you can leave a comment (or email me at neverwear@gaiman.net if you don't want to leave comment)
we will review and then consult with Cabal's dad...
final decision in a week or so!

Cabal contest and new American Gods buttons!

it's March!
(already!!??)

We are announcing a new contest up for the next few weeks, send me a graphic depiction of Cabal, our boss Neil's mighty canine companion --i need something easily printable & i am looking to you, the vast talent pool that is out there all across the globe.
Not looking for photos of Cabal, I want some sort of graphic to put on a label or shirt, use your imaginations!

I didn't want to post a photo, because I look to you to make your own image of this beautiful doggy, instead I posted a little movie I made of him playing with a stick:



Please send all files to: neverwear@gaiman.net

just send small files and we will have a vote.
if you win, I will need a bigger 300 dpi file...

contest closes on March 20th, on the vernal equinox, where night & day are equally long...

Winner of this contest will receive a signed-by-@neilhimself HOW TO TALK TO GIRLS AT PARTIES print.
