Following initial investigation in July, three more women come forward, including one who signed NDA following her experience with author
Edit: Not sure why the link abstract says two. The article clearly says three.

Damnit. This always sucks to hear but it sucks even more when it’s someone who’s work is (was) enjoyable.
I choose to continue to enjoy the work of people who turned out to be shitheads from before learning that they are shitheads. Michael Jackson, Phil Anselmo, now Neil Gaiman (actually, last year for him). All people who created great art that I enjoy and whose future work I will not consume (for the ones that are still alive). To be clear, MJ is only before the allegations. Thriller still kicks ass.
The work can still be enjoyable - you can separate the art from the artist.
I don’t enjoy supporting the artist even if the art is good and don’t buy into this argument. If you support the art, the artist is still making money off of it. Unless they are dead I guess…
What is this?
A gentle nudge towards, let’s say, alternative means of acquiring media to enjoy. One that, ironically enough, Neil Gaiman commended himself (under certain circumstances, of course). One that is still better than giving money to someone you don’t want to support as a person or a creator.
