It's a video of his commencement speech and is around 20 minutes long. The person who links to this said her favorite part starts at 9:40.




I've put this here because I know I will want to find it later, but his main point, "Make good art," makes me sad, because I don't make art.

Ah, but there was that thing that we said in grad school: "Those who can't make art, teach art history."

I know it's me & my head. Although you would have been a good editor for Gaiman. :)
[Given that he was talking to art school graduates, though, he'd definitely want to stick to the "art" theme.]
