One hour of Neil Gaiman

I was randomly watching stuff on youtube, and I found this video of Neil Gaiman talking for about an hour about his book Fragile Things and other stuff. Very interesting. I didn't know he was funny:

Great minds...look alike?

Addy, thanks for the link. I wonder if anyone read this new book and what they think. I read some mixed reviews online. While I enjoyed his books and think he is a very gifted writer, I felt he's often almost *there* but still hasn't gotten *there*.

It was good in patches and certainly superior to smoke and mirrors.

I like yours too, though old H.P. looks like Stan Laurel in that pic.

Re: One hour of Neil Gaiman

Thanks for the link - I saw Neil Gaiman speak and do a reading in London last year and he's a really funny guy in the flesh but quite unassuming as well. He was really excited about the filming of Stardust.
