So I never posted anything about the Neil Gaiman talk I attended at UCLA. It would be impossible to replicate how good it was during this tiny blog post, so you will only get the following key points:
-Gaiman read from several of his own works.
-He is an impressive orator.
-He is humble.
-He has grown tremendously as a writer over the last 26 years (at least)
-His accent is strikingly similar to all English persons, but his could lull a vampire to sleep.
-He's funny, when he doesn't mean to be.
-He's serious, when he means to be.
-He wears black and it fits his persona.
-He received a standing ovation.
-He's kind of weird, in a good way.
