Neil Gaiman Talks To John Dvorak

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. Head Crank? by eldavojohn · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    This "CrankyGeeks" club sounds right down my alley, how do I join?

    I noticed that John Dvorak's title is "Head Crank," how do I pledge to become an "Associate Crank?" Is there any hazing involved? How many rants about technology and politics do I have to go on to become inducted? How many outlandish statements do I have to make? Oh, at this rate, I'll never become "Head Crank!"
