Neil Gaiman's 'Make Good Art' Speech: Fantastic Mistakes

A must for any fan of the storytelling genius that is Neil Gaiman, author of the acclaimed novel American Gods and the highly anticipated new novel for adults, The Ocean at the End of the Lane.

In May 2012, Neil Gaiman delivered the commencement address at Philadelphia's University of the Arts, in which he shared his thoughts about creativity, bravery, and strength. He encouraged the fledgling painters, musicians, writers, and dreamers to break rules and think outside the box. Most of all, he urged them to make good art.

The book Make Good Art, designed by renowned graphic artist Chip Kidd, contains the full text of Gaiman's inspiring speech.
