I wanted to like him because some of his books have been comforting and his hair is as crazy as Einstein's, but it was never anything but Neil going about being famous, being too cute and self-consciously offbeat. And then Amanda Palmer. Jesus. It got radically worse. It got so I was reading it just to sneer. So I stopped.
I was just going through my old bookmarks and find that Neil has, some months back, actually gone and placed himself in front of people in a serious situation. Without his wife and everything. He sounded shook up after an initial attempt to seem unscathed. Yes, and he plans to have his twitface followers find out about it... heavy sigh... but there are a couple million of them... and it doesn't look as though this has just turned into a traumatic incident in his past.
So maybe I will let myself care about him a little again.
always and any time....
