Terry Pratchett is dead

If I'm just aching this can't go on
I came from chasing dreams to feel alone
There must be changes, miss to feel strong
I really need lifе to touch me

Very sad. I still rate Good Omens as one of the best things I've ever read.

That makes me indescribably sad.  So much joy he brought me and my wife.  Such wit.  Such a brilliance with words and such a...- His renderings of flawed human beings were so hilarious and honest and compassionate, all at the same time.

I'm lost for words.

Been reading Pratchett since I was a teenager, without doubt my favourite author. He will be sorely missed.

It seems several servers are emulating the 'Clacks' from the Discworld novels and including his name in the headers of their pages in tribute.
