Multiple projects involving novelist Neil Gaiman, known for books including Coraline and American Gods, have been paused or canceled altogether. Since July, Gaiman has been accused of sexual assault by a total of five women. The first two allegations were reported in a Tortoise podcast titled Master: The Allegations Against Neil Gaiman. Another woman made her accusations in a separate podcast, Am I Broken: Survivor Stories. Two more women came forward with their experiences in a follow-up episode of Master, claiming they had signed NDAs. One of the women, Scarlett, is a former nanny of Gaiman’s and another, known as K, was a fan. Both allege Gaiman forced them into rough sex they didn’t consent to.
