It's cool there's a lit category. I'm going to interview some of the nominees for the podcast.

Neil Gaiman is one of my absolute favorite writers... Hans: get him!!!

That'd be quite the coup.

Here's hoping. I thought I'd increase my chances going the funny route. Who knows.

Dear mr.Gaiman's Publisher

In honour of the 2007 best literature blog award, for which mr. Gaiman is a contender - and comfortably in the lead I might add - I'm trying to interview all the nominated bloggers for my podcast on http://www.wordsy.com/podcast.

I've secured 4 interviews so far but, to be perfectly honest, a few have also declined, sometimes even stating understandable reasons.

Now I'm fully aware that mr. Gaiman is probably too busy to be interviewed by some VUP on a "podcast, whatever that is" - but you see it would mean the world to our little online books and reading community. And that's why I have to try. So what do I need to do to make it happen?

Thank you for your time.

Please send your initial rejection to:
