I'm famous! Well, no...not really.....
For anyone keeping up with the Neil Gaiman blog feed on LJ - officialgaiman, the 'Mary' who's question is answered in the recent post titled "I am sick of winter and would like some sunshine now please" is, indeed, me. I wasn't new to Neil Gaiman when I got a copy of The Absolute Sandman Vol. 1, but I had not previously read any of the Sandman comics. So, I'm still a bit new as to what I need to purchase separately and had the two volumes mentioned in my question in my Amazon wish-list, but hadn't purchased them yet because I didn't know what, if any, of the auxiliary bits would be part of the Absolute series.

I'm in a showing off mood! I've been learning to build things in Second Life, and my most ambitious project to date is a tiara. It's based on the 'Girls of Great Britain and Ireland' tiara owned by HRH Queen Elizabeth II, and in honour of Brigid and Renee especially, and all of us artsy chicks who are a part of Brythony, I'm calling it the 'Girls of Brythony and Caer Llyr Tiara':


(That's my Second Life self modelling it)
