I'll live :). Who knew that Gaiman fellow was so popular in Canada?

You may want to follow his blog to see if he will be doing any other appearances in Toronto. Someone else mentioned to him that the seats sold out in two minutes, and he said he would keep his blog updated about any other news in Toronto.

Thanks, I saw that in his blog this morning, too (that's where I learned his show was sold out- too bad I didn't read the blog faithfully enough to know he was coming to Toronto!). Looks like he'll be doing some Toronto school appearances, too, though I extremely doubt he'll get to the school I teach at in Richmond Hill :).

Though if he did that would be quite a story, wouldn't it? :)

That's a shame! I hope they manage to shoe-in an extra event that you might get along to.

I managed to get to see him on the Graveyard Book tour in Edinburgh, with my son, on my son's 16th birthday last year, and Mr G was in a doodling sort of mood for the book-signing (which we managed to get to the front of). I'm quite glad we managed that before the hype of Coraline made his events so sought-after.

Ah, well. Wish I'd managed to read about it sooner than I did.
