Beers & Books LXXVI – Terry Pratchett

Truthfully,
without over-egging it, as I often do,
the library and journalism,
those things made me who I am.

Terry Pratchett (28 April 1948 – 12 March 2015)

  1. I mourned Terry Pratchett. He was proof positive that despite the common wisdom keeping your mind active does NOT protect it from dementia - which he accurately described as the embuggerance.

  2. I have never.... (you know the rest...). I wonder if not reading and not doing things can also make one who one is? I expect so.

    1. Of course. You are made by not reading and not doing things.

    1. Although not being an afficionado of his genre I am quite sure you will enjoy. He was certainly a great writer.
