(The link can't be posted here as such. Just cut-and-paste that URL into your browser. ...I assume @neil-gaiman will drop a better link into Tumblr shortly.)
I'm hoping they will drop one native to Tumblr. Here's one in the meantime...
A Few Answers to a Lot of Questions
1: The art you see here is not the cover art.
2: I am adapting the book, not the show.
3: No, the characters will not look the way they look in the show.
4: The characters in the book generally don't look like the characters in the show.
5: I can't use the likenesses of real people. Who do not look like the characters in the book, anyway.
6: Crowley does not have red hair in the book. So he doesn't have red hair in the graphic novel.
7: Crowley in the book is only supposed to look about 24 years old. Aziraphale is only supposed to look about 30.
8: Everything I do goes through Neil and the Pratchett Estate.
9: I love the show as much as you do, but it's not the book.
10: I love the book as much as you do, but it's not the show.
11: Yes, I wrote the script and am doing all the art. I am as faithful to the source material as possible.
12: Yes, it's a lot of work.
14: Publishing via Kickstarter enables the creators to maintain complete control of the work.
15: I hope you enjoy the graphic novel. I'm not going to talk about it too much because I need my energy for work.
Have a great day.
Yes, you read the infographic right, Good Omens The Official and Ineffable Graphic Novel is a project that the Terry Pratchett Estate (aka Dunmanifestin) are bringing to Kickstarter !

Any pirate crew in our ranks? Looking for something to enjoy while we're all waiting for Good Omens season 2? ... How do you feel about oranges?
Maybe you would like to join in on a group rewatch of Our Flag Means Death for a Celebration of their own on June 5-9.
And on the 10th of May, we were given a date for season 2, and it is ineffably good. Good Omens returns July 28th on Prime Video
Happy Birthday Michael Sheen!
You waited. And now you see Michael Sheen and David Tennant, being perfectly effable. (On our Soho set. The bookshop is on the left. Could that be a pub on the right?)
I thought I was going to miss MerMay this year - big thank you to @call-of-the-ocean and the Art Pit server for the push!
This lineless style is inspired by Eric Carle - truly a titan in the field. I have studied his art for much of my life. RIP, sir.

Summary: The Them have a lot of questions for Aziraphale and Crowley about spirits! They answer them truthfully and perhaps say some rather telling things that they haven’t exactly admitted to each other. Written for the 2021 Good Omens Celebration prompt Spirit. :)
Hello friends!! Today was the last prompt of the celebration! I’m going to miss it. THANK YOU SO MUCH to anyone who has read my writing this past month. I hope you know you light up my world a tiny bit, like a far off star <3 I hope you enjoy this last work!!

Day 14: Spirit (4004 B.C.)
Aziraphale is well aware that he’s playing for time; he’d said that he needed to dash five minutes ago, and here he is very much not dashing.
It’s just… there’s a pleasant smell leftover from the rain, making the earth fresh and clean, as if it’s already been made anew. He can’t help but dawdle. After all, what good is a Garden if no-one is around to enjoy it?
Crawly is walking along the wall, keeping his balance with his arms outstretched. Aziraphale has to catch himself from saying, “Take care you don’t fall,”—he supposes that it’s rather redundant advice at this juncture.
In any case, Crawly does not seem at all bothered about the height; his eyes are closed, chin tilting up towards the sky.
And…
There’s a flicker, of sorts, invisible but certainly present. Aziraphale unfurls ethereal senses cautiously, and suddenly has to stop himself from stumbling. It can’t be… but, it is.
For Upper Management had told him in no uncertain terms that demons no longer have spirits—only ugly, mangled remnants of what once was, no real emotion in them at all. (Privately, Aziraphale has never sensed much feeling in any fellow angel’s spirit.) But, Crawly’s… Crawly’s is brimming with life. There’s a myriad of emotions, everything at once, and more besides: anger yes, and plenty of hurt, but there is wonder, too, despite it all. Wonder and excitement for the humans, the plants, the animals… secret, unadulterated joy for all these new creations.
How do you do it? Aziraphale thinks, watching Crawly in awe. You should be impossible.
Crawly’s eyes open. He stops and raises one eyebrow, looking a mixture of amused and… puzzled? “Not to discourage Sloth or anything, but shouldn’t you be…?”
“Oh, this is all part of the job,” Aziraphale says quickly.
Crawly smiles. “Really.”
“Yes, absolutely. Observing, you know.”
“Hmm.” Fleetingly, Crawly mimes drawing a sword. “Think you’ve gone above and beyond observing, angel. And, well… you’re still talking to me.” The last part is said a little hesitantly, almost as if he expects Aziraphale to balk at the reminder.
“Oh, honestly,” Aziraphale says, aiming for his most pragmatic tone, “what did They all expect to happen, stationing us both here? It would hardly do to ignore you, that’s not very angelic.”
Crawly snorts. “Best not to speculate,” he replies, in such an accurate imitation that Aziraphale can only laugh.
Yet, there’s only so much playing for time one can do. As Aziraphale readies himself to truly depart, Crawly sobers slightly, looking thoughtful.
“See you, angel. It’s been…” He smirks. “Ineffable.”
“Ah… yes, quite.” Aziraphale nods. “Mind how you go.” Oh. He had not planned to say that, has never said anything like it before, but can’t deny that it sounds… right.
The last sight he has is of Crawly standing by the wall, hand raised in a half-wave.
Upstairs, Aziraphale is soon accosted, laden with a series of forms: ‘Reflections on the Eden Failure.’ However, he finds that he cannot focus on his work at all, can only hope against hope that he will be assigned to Earth again.
(Perhaps permanently.)

Fic: Aziraphale/Crowley - Got your name on my heart
For a prompt of ‘Spirit’ from the Good Omens Celebration. Please feel free to send me any prompts. More of my fics here. Last one! I’ve done all the prompts this month, go me. =)
Aziraphale likes to read on their sofa at night, leaning against the side of it, with his book on his lap and a cup of whatever drink he’s having (usually made by Crowley) on the table beside him. Their T.V might be going, or it might not, and on cold nights there is always a fire in the fireplace, and it is cosy.
Crowley never spends two nights in a row in the same place. Sometimes he sits at Aziraphale’s feet, the perfect place for Aziraphale to absently play with his curls - and braid them, on nights Aziraphale is feeling playful. Other times he curls by the fire, a pile of coils and basks in the heat. Often he leans against Aziraphale, or crawls into his lap to be a pillow for his book, or is in some way touching the light of his existence.
And sometimes, on rare occasions, he crawls into Aziraphale’s lap and lets his true self, the spirit that makes him, go.
Not a lot. Just a bit of him, enough to brush against Aziraphale and see if Aziraphale reaches back.
He always does.
It’s at this point Aziraphale will put his book aside and pull Crowley more securely into his lap, will stare down at the demon in his lap and wrap one arm around Crowley while his free hand plays with Crowley’s hair. Aziraphale will look down and smile, soft and sweet.
And then they will merge.
It starts as a straight swap, where Crowley will go from being held to holding, will get the feeling of his dear angel in his arms and be able to stare down into Aziraphale’s bright, yellow eyes. He gets, for a moment, to be the soft one, the one who comforts instead of the one who is comforted, and it is… well it is nice, for lack of a better word.
But then they will swap again but not fully. Bits of Crowley will return but also stay until they are held and holding, comforted and comforting, equal parts loving, opposites of the same side.
And they will stay like that, for as long as they can bear. Longer sometimes, unwilling to give up the connection of being them.
But slowly, naturally, they become Crowley and Aziraphale, sitting on a sofa as dawn’s light breaks, ready to face another day as their own side.
As them, two equals of a new whole.
Everything’s going to be perfectly alright, my dear.

Summary: Crowley has a lot of feelings about What Tomorrow Holds. Because if their body-swap plan doesn’t work out… it could hold nothing. Or at least nothing good. And Crowley doesn’t know how to handle that terrifying reality. Written for the 2021 Good Omens Celebration prompt Body.
Hi everyone!! I consider this one to be quite sad. It has a hopeful ending, though!! I hope you like it <3
No Wrong Way
Aziraphale isn’t sure what wakes him.
There’s no light peeking through the curtains yet, no rising sounds of traffic on the street; all inside seems calm, and it doesn’t seem as though he has to use the facilities.
There’s another man currently wound about him like an octopus, but he’s well used to that.
Aziraphale stretches a bit within Crowley’s grasp. One slender arm is precisely where it best likes to be, wrapped around his middle with familiar ease. Its hand cups loosely against his far side. Occasionally the fingers twitch.
It’s not a small distance, that reach across his middle, but his husband has long arms and is very determined.
–
Me: “Huh, neat, the Good Omens Celebration theme for the day is ‘Body’. Good for it.” Me: “…” Me: “It is illegal for me to not at least try to use this opportunity to get on my soapbox.”
So I climbed on my soapbox for 800 words of INNWverse Aziraphale POV. Every size of body is equally good and I am not accepting counter-arguments at this time.
