The one who wrote Coraline, and co-wrote the book of Good Omens and made the TV show, also the Sandman comics writer and co-creator who made the Sandman TV show. Quite nice really.
I read this quote attributed to you, but I can’t find what book or story it’s from. It sounds like something you’d write, but nothing I can find listing it’s text-source has made me skeptical. Can you help me place it?
“It’s not that they’re small, the fair folk. Especially not the queen of them all, Mab of the flashing eyes and the slow smile with lips that can conjure your heart under the hills for a hundred years. It’s not that they’re small. It’s that we’re so far away.”
It’s pretty obscure – it was from a set of very short stories I wrote to accompany Dave McKean postage stamps in the UK. It was reprinted (or printed if you didn’t have the Royal Mail Fantasy Stamps booklet) in the Neil Gaiman Reader.
