What happened to Warlock?

resonantI just finished re-reading Good Omens, which was even more delicious in light of the dozens of Aziraphale/Crowley stories I've enjoyed since the first time I read it. But I began thinking about Warlock.
You remember Warlock? He was one of the switched babies; he belonged to an American diplomat and his wife; Heaven and Hell lavished much care on his upbringing until they figured out their mistake. When we last see him, he's being sent back to America.
If the events of the book take place in 1990, then Warlock was born in 1979 and is now 31. What on earth do you suppose he's up to? And with whom?
