"Neil Gaiman has declared that his next book-signing tour will be the last event of its kind in which he takes part. The Sandman writer confirmed that he will not embark on any large-scale tours after the UK and US signing dates to support his latest novel Ocean at the End of the Lane. &amp;quot;They&amp;#039;re exhausting, on a level that&amp;#039;s hard to believe,&amp;quot; Gaiman wrote on his blog. &amp;quot;I love meeting people, but the sixth hour of signing, for people who have been standing in a line for seven hours, is no fun for anybody. &amp;quot;So I&amp;#039;m going to try and make this tour the glorious last US book signing tour, and then stop doing book signing tours for good.&amp;quot; Gaiman went on to say that he is hoping to hold smaller signings in countries such as Brazil and Poland, and may make one-off appearances at other events in the future. The announcement appears to confirm that Gaiman will not embark on a tour of the upcoming Sandman prequel project he is working on with J.H. Williams III. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
