I know this comm has fallen pretty silent, but I'd love to see us come together again and chat a little bit in the comments like old times. One of our canon's co-creators has left us today.

"AT LAST, SIR TERRY, WE MUST WALK TOGETHER."

Reminiscences and reflections and favorite quotes and tributes for our beloved Pterry.

...regarding a Good Omens miniseries teaser trailer at Discworld 2012This is all of the news anyone can find so far. If you find anything else, drop it in the comments; I haven't seen this hit LJ yet, so I thought I'd telegraph it over. Recording was verboten, so nobody knows if (or when) it'll hit the 'net ( Read more... )

Here's the story:
When the Good Omens Library was first started, the domain name was registered through a "proxy". Then I took over, but I can't access the proxy without codes that I don't have, and which the original owner doesn't have either. Which means I cannot unlock the site and move it elsewhere.

From yesterday's Guardian, some happy-sad news: Sir PTerry has started the formal process that will allow him, when the time comes, to undergo assisted suicide at the Dignitas clinic in Switzerland.

"Kink" is defined as "whatever YOU think is kinky" (which could be cuddles on rainbow clouds for all anyone cares). And it works just like kink memes for fic... But for artwork! (with a tiny side order of writing if you like).

The comm is ADULTS ONLY.

So, Neil recently tweeted this, and I MUST KNOW what those two were up to...

Just how cool is legendary fantasy author Sir Terry Pratchett? In early 2009, he was knighted, reportedly saying on the occasion that “you can’t ask a fantasy ( Read more... )

Something cool from Neil Gaiman's Twitter last night, regarding the popularity of Good Omens on Amazon's lists.

Specifically, note the category in which the book is placed.

For some reason, I am not the least surprised.

So apparently wine in the UK is going plastic.

Oh, they say it's environmentally motivated, but I don't know, something about wine not in glass just seems... wrong.

So what do you guys think, Crowley did it to make wine cheaper and piss people off?

Or is he accusing the ( Read more... )
