So for those of you who don't know, Neil Gaiman is one of my favorite modern writers evah. I've read just about everything he's ever written, and some of the comic books (also known as graphic novels, the difference between which he goes into). If you haven't read Neverwhere, which is darkly humorous and really original, or American Gods, which mixes up mythologies in a really wonderful way for anyone who's ever loved the stories of the old gods, or the Sandman graphic novels, which are beautiful and dark and full of magic and mystery, you are completely missing out and need to go read one or all of them now. He also co-wrote the screenplays for the movie version of his novel Stardust and the 2007 Beowulf movie, if you saw those.
Anyway, long story short, he was interviewed on Google. It's fun stuff, full of jokes and back-story, and you should go watch it.
