Welcome to the NEW RLFANS.COM. After twenty-five years of service, the old site expired over the last few days. To maintain service we have had no option but to make an early switch to the new site which was in development/testing. Some elements of the new site are unfinished, such as; page numbering and quotations. We will fix these minor issues as soon as we can, please bear with us.

| Quote ="Dead Man Walking" No more Discworld novels.'"
Rhianna Pratchett will continue to write Discworld novels, having been given her father's blessing to do so before his death. "The Discworld is safe in my daughter's hands," he said. | | |

own all of them, the man was an absolute legend, many people state "Mort" as his best, but I think Feet of Clay and Going Postal are better on a satirical level. He will be much missed.

She said once before that she doesn't want to, she considers them her Dad's legacy to be left to stand alone. She may work with the characters in another medium but probably not novels.

she'll go down the Movie route I would imagine (and hope), I can't wait to see the Unseen University knock Hogwarts into the past, Pratchett was an awesome mind, every time you re-read there is something else on offer.

| Quote ="cod'ead"I've never read any of his novels but a mate of mine was a very good friend of Pratchett's - he's one of the executors of his will.
Bernard tells a story of when he was round at Pratchett's and Steven Spielberg phoned to discuss the film rights to one of his books. Pratchett was very protective over artistic control and wanted the final say on screenplay and casting, something that Spielberg was reluctant to give up. When Spielberg's PA came on the phone, Pratchett put it on speakerphone and the conversation went something like this:
Hello Mr Pratchett, I have Mr Spielberg on the line for you
"Terry, it's Steven here, how are you?"
'I'm fine thank you Mr Speilberg'
"Terry, call me Steven please"
'OK Mr Spielberg'
"Have you given any more thought to our offer Terry?"
'I have Mr Spielberg and I'm afraid the answer must be no'
"Sorry to hear that Terry, this could make you very rich"
'I'm already very rich Mr Spielberg'
"Terry, I'm talking about very, very rich. More money than you could possible spend"
'Mr Spielberg, I already have more money than I could possibly spend, why would I need any more?'
Over the years Pratchett had rebuffed the BBC on many occasions, simply because he wouldn't relinquish control. I've always found it strange that Sky, of all media channels, was the only one to give Pratchett what he required.
I'm expecting that Wincanton may be overrun with Discworld fans this weekend on pilgrimage, seeins as the town is twinned with Ankh Morpork
 '"
Proper cheered me up reading that. Wish I'd met him. | | | |
