“I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
Death thought about it.
CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.”

"William wondered why he always disliked people who said ‘no offence meant’. Maybe it was because they found it easier to say ‘no offence meant’ than actually refrain from giving offence."
– The Truth (Terry Pratchett)
Book Depository (one of our bigger revenue streams) is closing down forever on Wednesday.
That also means our international readers will have a harder time getting #TerryPratchett#discworld books in English too as the Book Depository offered free shipping worldwide.
I know to most that means nothing, but to us it means two of our revenue streams are gone.
For anyone wondering, the hashtag I habitually use on follow thank yous #TheMammutMoves was created by way of an indication of rebellion against the bird site & especially the super rich powers that govern our world.
However it is based on a quote from #TerryPratchett ‘s #discworld namely “The Turtle Moves” and can therefore be used as a sign of rebellion against pretty much anything! 🫶🖖
Really really enjoyed Pratchetts Lords and Ladies. It's one of the few that I've been disappointed it ended.

I enjoyed #FeetOfClay even though I thought it was slow going. Maybe it's because I've never heard of a golem before so I'm not sure about the lore etc that goes with them? 🤷♀️

We are #Pratchat, a #TerryPratchett#book club #podcast. Each month we* discuss one of Pratchett’s books, short stories or other works with a special guest - and we aim to cover all of them, not just the #Discworld ones!
We’re new to Mastodon, but chatting with our listeners has been a big part of the show since we started back in 2017.
Something I may have alluded to already is that I'm a big fan of the works of Sir Terry Pratchett. Which is why, shortly after his passing, I started putting together a website devoted to him.
It started off with a short piece I wrote about what it meant to me when he died, and a couple of bits of fan-fiction I'd written myself, plus some links to various websites and social media relating to the great man; but has turned into a large collection of stories, memories and thoughts collected from people right across RoundWorld.
I've also attempted to gather alternate book covers for all the books, publishing history, and a few other amuse-bouche of various sorts.
If you are a fan, check it out and let me know what you think, or if you'd like to write something to go on it yourself - you'd be most welcome!!!
Disclaimer, or possibly the opposite - it's all done in my own time and benefits me in no way whatsoever. I do it because I miss his wit and wisdom and want to share his legacy.
I'm Kanna (KannaOphelia) pretty much everywhere. I write (fanfic and original work), I read, I love and support AO3. I never really got the hang of the Bird site, but I'm happy to be here. Feel free to talk to me!
