Fortunately, the Milk | Neil Gaiman
post image

Reading this now because I love Gaiman and I‘m thinking this is a book the main character of my NaNo2018 story would read to his daughter, so I need to check it out, of course. Besides, I think I might listen to Gaiman read the phone book, or the dictionary. He‘s practically an actor.
The best part, I think that‘s Gaiman there on the cover. lol

julesG Gaiman's the dad in the story. Check out the illustrated edition, Chris Riddell definitely drew Neil. 6y
Tamra Such a fun story! 6y
GingerAntics @julesG the guy on this cover is definitely Gaiman. The guy on the white cover, not so much. But the red cover is definitely Gaiman. I wonder if this is based off of a real thing that happened to him. lol 6y
GingerAntics @Tamra it really is! It was a great story before bed. I had the audiobook, which has the added benefit of Neil reading it himself, which is always an event. 6y

Turned out to be a lazy weekend but I did start on the 1st like I had intended to. I have tomorrow off, so I plan to spend an equal amount of time reading and writing. I at least have the beginning to my first short story and progress is what matters.💪 #nanowrimo #nano2018

Maybe this is my problem...I‘m just too nice to people...I can be evil to my characters.
Yeah, but I love them.

Interesting. Author‘s get to explore their inner evil.

jmofo I don‘t know, there‘s a difference between cruelty and pragmatism in writing. 6y
GingerAntics @jmofo I think so, too. I think this book is possibly meant for younger writers who probably don‘t know the word pragmatism or wouldn‘t see the difference. I like this book because it‘s all about the writing. It talks about something briefly and then gives a writing exercises. Every exercise can basically be tweaked to fit whatever you‘re working on at the time. (edited) 6y
