My plans for the rest of the year are basically, finish the last Good Omens TV script, and then to write a novel.
I'm doing one TV interview for THE VIEW FROM THE CHEAP SEATS.
I'm making a couple of mysterious appearances for the American Gods tv series.
I'm not going to entirely vanish from social media, but probably, pretty much, I'll be gone, and living in a book which currently doesn't exist except in weird notes and ideas and things in my head.
As a general rule, when I leave social media, I blog a bit more. So keep half an eye on this blog. There are some amazing things coming out this year, and I would be an idiot if I didn't let you all know about them, so you will...
For example, what on earth is this photo about?
So I'm basically around for another week.

Who are these people? And what does it have to do with Neverwhere?
All the BBC website tells us is
...we’re thrilled that, later this year, led by the ever-dangerous Marquis de Carabas, we’ll be taking a short trip back to the land of London Below.
We're expecting high adventure and a spine-tingling ride, with a mix of brand new characters and old favourites.
...which is definitely interesting. And will need to be announced. And so will the amazing new Chris Riddell illustrated edition of Neverwhere from the UK: I've never seen anything like it before.
This is a photograph of Chris and the cover of the book, wrapped around a completely different book, to make it look like the actual book.
And then there's the wonderful secret thing we are doing with the US paperback covers, which is making me very happy indeed. And you'll learn about them here, and I'm sure I'll put that up on Facebook and Twitter too.
And then there's the announcement of the book I finished last month... That's happening soon. It's exciting. I'll announce that.
So I'm basically around for another week.
Expect a vague vanishing. And an eventual return. And interruptions for information.
But mostly I'm planning to be low profile online and living in my head in order to report back, from dark strange places, the remarkable doings of some most peculiar people.
