Neil Gaimain's comments from Todd Klein's blog

"One of us wrote four pages and sent them to the other, who wrote four pages and sent them back, and so on until it was done."

Summary

Analysis

• Sources of quotes
• Meanings of names
• References to other works
• Theories about what happens under the surface, what the narrator isn't telling us, who the narrator is and when and why s/he is telling the story, what the whole thing "means," etc. If there are multiple or competing theories, each one should be given a name with a three-bang (!!!) header; if the page begins to get out-of-hand from the size of these, as could happen in a few cases, they should be shuffled off to their own page(s).
• Etc.
