To my dear artistic, writerly, and wonderful followers,
Watch this video. Save it in your favorites. Keep it where you can always watch it, where you know you can find it.
This is Neil Gaiman’s famous ‘Make Good Art’ speech, the source of countless comics and infographics. It’s inspirational, funny, and straight from the heart.
Watch it, and keep it around.
It will save your art.
