“Anything that keeps you happy and writing is part of my writing ritual: I like music, so I tend to have it playing in the background. But if I'm interested, I can write in an airport waiting areas.”

British author and storyteller of the late 20th and early 21st centuries, Gaiman blends fantasy, science fiction, and horror with lyrical prose. He’s celebrated for works like *The Sandman* comic series, *American Gods*, and *Coraline*, as well as his contributions to children’s literature and film adaptations. His writing often explores myth, imagination, and the boundaries between worlds.
