“Thank you, Creator, that you created pigs and elephants with long snouts, that you shredded leaves and hearts, that you gave beets their sweetness. Thank you for nightingales and bedbugs. That girls have breasts, that fish breathe air, that we have lightning and cherries. That you commanded us to multiply in most eccentric ways, that you gave thought to stones, seas, and people.”

Hello!
My friend is a huge fan of yours. You have inspired her to write and create in amazing ways and I want to thank you for that. Especially with good omens - season two was amazing and we both did quite a bit of screaming at the tv - you are a huge inspiration. I would love to get her a signed copy of good omens for her birthday next year, but I haven’t been able to find any up to date information on how to do that. I looked into buying something used but there were too many sketchy options. Do you have any sources that are more official or a way for me to send a book? Thank you again!
The Golden Notebook in Woodstock. It's my local bookshop and four or five times a year I pop in and sign a few thousand books for them.
Here's a film on reddit of what that looks like:
And you can order it from them here:
They actually will ship books outside of the US, but you will need to email them about it.
