The Vicissitudes of Fame

Bestselling author Neil Gaiman has one of the funniest, most entertaining and interesting author blogs. In a recent entry, Neil relates this incident, which is sure to give any author pause......"Yesterday I went to San Diego on the train. Waiting in line, I realised that pretty much everyone else getting on the train was also going to the convention. 'Boy, last year I tried everything I could to get your autograph,' said the gentleman behind me, to me. 'I never got it though. I never made it into one of the signing lines. I even tried getting round the back, the no admittance area, to get you to sign something, but they stopped me.' 'Oh,' I said, apologetically. 'Er, well, would you like it now?' 'Nah,' he said. 'It wasn't for me anyway.'" Ouch!
