#BookmarkMonday: Neil Gaiman, leather and calligraphy!

I just started reading Neil Gaiman's new book – non-fiction!!! – The View from the Cheap Seats: Selected Non-Fiction*. I got this late for a TLC Book Tour but am reading it nonetheless because of course, this is Neil Gaiman. As a bookmark, I have an old leather tag from an bag I bought. I have a hard time tossing away product tags when so much thought obviously went into them.

On another note, I've been caught up in a new-old hobby, calligraphy, and haven't been blogging as much as I'd like. I am getting those creative juices going again. If you'd like to sneak a peek, check out my Instagram account titik.at.tinta. Here's a sample:

What do you think? This brush calligraphy is growing on me. . . . . #blahblahblah #calligraphy #calligraphyart #brushlettering #brushcalligraphy #freehandcalligraphy

About The View from the Cheap Seats: Selected Non-Fiction by Neil Gaiman*: An enthralling collection of nonfiction essays on myriad topics—from art and artists to dreams, myths, and memories—observed in Neil Gaiman’s probing, amusing, and distinctive style.

An inquisitive observer, thoughtful commentator, and assiduous craftsman, Neil Gaiman has long been celebrated for the sharp intellect and startling imagination that informs his bestselling fiction. Now, The View from the Cheap Seats brings together for the first time ever more than sixty pieces of his outstanding nonfiction. Analytical yet playful, erudite yet accessible, this cornucopia explores a broad range of interests and topics, including (but not limited to): authors past and present; music; storytelling; comics; bookshops; travel; fairy tales; America; inspiration; libraries; ghosts; and the title piece, at turns touching and self-deprecating, which recounts the author’s experiences at the 2010 Academy Awards in Hollywood.

Insightful, incisive, witty, and wise, The View from the Cheap Seats explores the issues and subjects that matter most to Neil Gaiman—offering a glimpse into the head and heart of one of the most acclaimed, beloved, and influential artists of our time.
