Neil Gaiman - Meet the Writers

[@nayafauzia476]

The answer to that last question... pure poetry. He's amazing.

[@luckyold317]

as he gets older he looks more and more like the early drawings of Morpheus.

i dont remember

[@Martha-jl6eu]

When I sat down to read Norse Mythology, I didn't stand up again until I finished the book. It was 250? pages or something. Not only is it a page turner, it is *the most* charming book I have ever read. It may have been written for children, but I get the impression that Neil never talks down to children. Norse Mythology is a beautiful book for ages 8 to 80.

I have yet to read one of his novels (this summer, hopefully this Christmas I will, I swear!), but I am becoming obsessed with this man. The interviews he gives are so insightful into his way of thinking, the writing process, the life of a writer. It's always quite interesting to see the author behind the stories you've heard about, giving their own personal accounts of what drives and inspires them.

[@novakstinton7664]

when?

[@DarthTaiter79]

My boyfriend introduced me to Neil Gaiman's works...LOVED American Gods!

[@SleepFan771]

Haha, thanks. Neil is truly inspiring here, but he always entertains naturally in interviews. Shows he is a straight up gentlemen.

[@novakstinton7664]

who?

[@DarthTaiter79]

Taiter is a nickname I've had for years, derived from my last name, just added the "Darth" because I like Star Wars and it was around the time the Darth Tater Mr. Potato Head came out. :)

[@vshvevhfrfery638]

Read Coraline and loved it, about 100 pages into American Gods (got it today) and loving it very much. Not sure which to read next yet but I'm sure I'll enjoy it whatever it is. Neil is a terrific author!

[@novakstinton7664]

thats so crazy i just dont remember

[@crazymofoen]

Neverwhere was awesome, keep em coming! :)

[@SweetCherryAppleDip1]

My little cousin and I are currently reading your book "The Graveyard Book". It is fantastic!

[@mackfarlainethebarenakedau5113]

There's nothing like being a writer. I've always felt it's the closest thing I could ever get to growing wings a soaring high.

[@novakstinton7664]

do you know him?

[@HotPocketsBoy]

@Canadish Amazing how some things happen for a reason.

[@xanthous0manticore]

holy crap a floating head!

[@whiskeylung]

LOL, had to rewatch the video in order to decipher why I wrote that comment and why your response was so funny.

[@pelephant]

@JohnOnik3 Sort of. Not in a very obvious way, but it IS a fantasy book after all.

[@FirstLast-qb9iq]

So I think Gaiman basically lifted the idea for "American gods" directly from Eddie Campbells "Deadface/ Bacchus", a story about how ancient gods in human form cope in modern society.

[@novakstinton7664]

do you know BOFA

[@joseg-jf9ir]

Neil Gaiman is just a good hypnotist. He's a very talented manipulator.

[@Kumbaya6991]

Ur nuts

[@novakstinton7664]

Who

[@101retspoons]

he IS the sandman

[@novakstinton7664]

when did i ask and i dont remember

[@SleepFan771]

Can you imagine? He'd be all "What the Fuck?" Then proceed to write thousands of poems and short stories about it.

[@R34n1mated]

Someone find the guy that threw the beer can and give him a medal.

[@mayaenglish5424]

Because you don't like Neil? Or because you Really Really like Neil and are glad he gave up his punk rock existence and took up writing? lol.

[@jjklliop]

@@mayaenglish5424 probably the really really like Neil bit...

[@mayaenglish5424]

@@jjklliop Yeah probably, but you have to admit it is a funny thing to say about someone you like, let's reward the person that tried to concuss them with a beer can, literary history thanks them! :)

[@whiskeylung]

10$ to whoever sees Neil in a Starbucks and biffs a full beer at him.

[@romansiguenza8738]

He is a psycho. Hard to read his work now after all the women that have accused him od sexual assault.

[@gmchessplay9043]

Don't be a cultural tourist. That's very profound.
