Terry Pratchett

[stormdog]

I'm feeling sad today about the release of the last Discworld book and the finality of that event despite the fact that I've only ever read the Rincewind the Wizard triology, and that was at least fifteen years ago. I understand personally the depth to which one can be involved in a fictional realm, and it's clear to me how deeply so many people I know were involved with Pratchett's Discworld. People talking about their hesitance to start reading the last book in the series because there will never be another are expressing a feeling I know very well, and It has me feeling a bit down.

But I do hope that, one of these days, I might have time to read some more of it.

(In fact, there are so many writers of fiction I want to read more of and haven't. That makes me sad too.)
