Neil Gaiman has released a book of his great commencement address, Make Good Art.
When things get tough, this is what you should do: Make good art. I’m serious. Husband runs off with a politician — make good art. Leg crushed and then eaten by a mutated boa constrictor — make good…
Art is therapeautic and turns trials into beauty.
There is no such thing as writer’s block. Those who think they have writer’s block are in reality trying to do the impossible: create something from nothing.
I want my dialogues to be dialectics.
Writers are the custodians of memory…
There’s nothing worse than being dramatic. I hate seeing actors running around trying to show emotion on camera. It’s stupid. Kuleshov was right: create the emotion by editing and the situation. Not by trying to show it.
In real life people try to hide their emotions. No wonder most acting clashes with what reality is like: actors try to show emotion, which is the opposite of what we do in real life: try to hide our emotions.
