Neil Gaiman Talks To John Dvorak

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the you-get-what-everyone-gets dept.

writes "John Dvorak managed to get Neil Gaiman to come onto his video podcast and discuss writing technique and such. I'm not a huge Dvorak fan, but Gaiman will get my attention pretty much any time." Well, it is worth noting that there are other folks before Gaiman, but Gaiman's piece is excellent. As regular readers know, I've been a huge fan/proponent of Neil's work and having meet him a couple years back and exchanged some e-mail over the years it's good to see him getting the recognition he deserves. Watching this video also made me think of some other unusual pairings; I'm thinking Katie Couric doing an interview with Stephen Hawking should happen.

    Get Katie Couric to interview Stephen Hawking during another one of her televised colon exams.

    Hawking: Equations are just the boring part of mathematics. I attempt to s...what the hell?

    Couric: RRRRRRRRRRRRRGH! MORE LUBE GOD DAMMIT! ...So, you're coming out with another book or something? AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
