Art Matters: Because Your Imagination Can Change the World by Neil Gaiman
inspiring
medium-paced
3.75
I borrowed the audiobook from my library, so I have not seen the illustrations (and had no idea this was an illustrated book until just now).
The first half is a manifesto/credo regarding the importance of literacy and our responsibility to ensure a literate next generation. The second half of the book is a collection of essays and advice, mainly geared towards fiction writers. I was coming at this with the idea of getting some motivation for my visual art, so Art Matters wasn't as relevant as I hoped, but it is still a good read.
