Hi All,
This is going to be a mini review, just a mini one. The 'Make Good Art' Speech that was given by Neil Gaiman was transcribed into a book, the speech itself was 19 minutes long and made some very good points, you can find it online if you want to watch it.
It states that no matter what is going on in your life you should make good art, whether that be writing, music, visual art, anything.
It is a very moving speech and VERY inspirational and I would suggest that you listen to it, or read it, or both.
Another thing that I found inspirational was a quote I found online from Neil Gaiman. He got a question (maybe over Tumblr I don't rightly know) but the question was
"I want to be a writer when I grow up, am I insane?"
His response was "Yes. Growing up is highly overrated, just be an author."
To me this meant that you didn't have to wait to be an adult to do what you wanted to do with your life, just do it.
So yes, inspiration post thingy and mini-review of the "Make Good Art" speech by Neil Gaiman, there will be more reviews to come (definitely) and this would have been longer but how long can you make a review of a book that is about 100 pages?
(I just checked out, like 20 odd books from my local library and I will be working through them and reviewing them when I finish them, keep reading, and, even though I've got a lot of reading to do suggest books for me to read by all means, because God knows when I finish my stack of books I'll need something else to read)
