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.

  1. "Good Omens" by Hemogoblin · · Score: 4, Informative

    If you enjoy reading books by either Neil Gaiman or Terry Prachett, pick up a copy of "Good Omens." Its one of the most enjoyable, humourous and wimsical books I've ever read. By the way, I'm not affilated with either of the authors. I'm just a fan.

    It's very kind of you to send people off to google with their dick in their hand.

    Google's image search might be a good idea for you at this point.

  4. Who's being interviewed? by Asahi+Super+Dry · · Score: 3, Informative

    That was annoying. It seemed like Dvorak was just interviewing himself - he kept interrupting and answering his own damn questions.

    Actually, I was the submitter - I added it to my journal page to try the new (or new to me) "submit this journal entry" feature.

    Seems that the feature might still need a touch of work... ;)
