Nora S. Unwin, a member of the famous Unwin publishing family, was very familiar to a certain generation of readers.

Carved the Roast Beast

So I was searching for this blog on Google to see what would come up (any links or mentions) and I ran across that in 2016 a fan had asked Neil Gaiman a question on Twitter about stuffed crocodiles, and that the author had then googled the subject and sent people to my blog for an answer. All my fanboy instincts made me go "Gee Whiz!" when I thought about such an admired author looking (even for a second or two) at my li'l effort, and then referring people to it!
