Ask Amanda Palmer and Neil Gaiman discussion

Dear Amanda and Neil
I am like a Tornado! I am everywhere I liked your Ted Talk Amanda I will be done with my BA in English December and am already going on the right path. would love to meet you and Neil!! My question was that my music is folk.folk rock. experimental on my Facebook have 3 or 4 ablums in my head and was just wondering what company I should go to!

Dear Niel
Thanks for giving us Good Omens, The Sandman and Fortunately the Milk they are my favorite stories from you. Also thanks for the Make Good Art speech. It was Wicked! My question for you is Because I can use many mudieums for stories what do you like about working with comics? What is your favorite medium?
My question for both is what are your favorite philosophers?

I need to get on Ted Talks, Big Think and Kick Starter!!

Great to talk to both of you would like to meet you before winter comes!!

My question is how does it feel to be third and fourth choice after former President George Bush on the goodreads Ask-an-Author sign up screen.

Should we take this as a discernible pattern, or a progression of thought?

;-)

A progression of thought talk to everyone be Socratic!! Igor!!

Neil, this question is for you. What do you say to people who look down on graphic novels/"comics" as reading material? I have, in my work as a librarian, consistently held up the Sandman series as an example of a graphic novel that makes a reader think. Are there others that you would recommend to someone who might be hesitant about reading graphic novels? And did you have to ask for help when you were penning the Sandman series? All of those literary references...do you have a research assistant?

Thank you so much for your vocal support of libraries and of the work they do every day, and thanks very much for being involved with Doctor Who. The episodes you wrote were the best ones, in my humble opinion. :)

Amanda and Neil,
this question is for both of you! Do your ideas, books, songs just creep up on you? I find that i get In a writing mood when I just let my brain vomit thoughts all over canvas or paper. What puts the fire under you?

Jordan I'd rather be just like Socrates, grow a long beard and do as I please. And be asking you a lot of questions . . . for a living.

Neil Gaiman,
What inspired you to write Coraline?
