Dramas apocalípticos a un lado, hoy es el #TerryPratchettDay. El maestro de la fantasía satírica cumpliría 77 años, y en el Vuelo le dedicamos un monográfico de 6 partes, 12 horitas de nada, hablando de su vida y obra: go.ivoox.com/rf/79838278

To all a happy #TerryPratchettDay! Good Omens got me into reading his works and now I'm making my way through Discworld. It's such a fun journey. If you want to start in the wrong place (there's no such thing ;) ), I'd recommend Small Gods. GNU Terry Pratchett

‘We used to be heroes,’ he said. ‘People wanted us. Everyone watched out for us. Everyone knew us. This was a great place, once. Once, we were postmen.’ —Terry Pratchett, Going Postal.

‘We used to be heroes,’ he said. ‘People wanted us. Everyone watched out for us. Everyone knew us. This was a great place, once. Once, we were postmen.’ —Terry Pratchett, Going Postal.

My new book, The Postal Paths, celebrates the heroes who walked up to 20 miles a day delivering mail to Britain's most remote homes. It's #TerryPratchettDay today, and I was so glad to get permission to use this quote, which is beautifully apt... linktr.ee/postalpaths

I’m marking #TerryPratchettDay today with some words of wisdom from Nanny Ogg:

“When you break rules, break 'em good and hard.”
(Lords and Ladies)

Also remember you should never trust a dog with orange eyebrows, and always get the young man’s name and address.

❝ The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money.

    Take boots, for example. He earned thirty-eight dollars a month plus allowances. A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars. Those were the kind of boots Vimes always bought, and wore until the soles were so thin that he could tell where he was in Ankh-Morpork on a foggy night by the feel of the cobbles.

    But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that’d still be keeping his feet dry in ten years’ time, while the poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet. ❞
    -- Terry Pratchett, 'Men at Arms'

Happy #TerryPratchettDay remembering and celebrating the author who ignited our imaginations and made us all laugh so much.

Also the author who gave us Sam Vimes’ ‘Boots’ Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness.

Happy birthday to the one and only Sir Terry Pratchett, from slightly in the future in that place he liked to visit. Gone, but never forgotten; have a banana daiquiri (or Willikins-style virgin equivalent) in his memory.

And happy #TerryPratchettDay to all his many, many fans.

A vintage-style promotional poster split into two panels. The left side advertises “The Magic of Terry Pratchett,” a stand-up comedy show by Marc Burrows, featuring ornate, retro typography and an illustrated portrait of Terry Pratchett in a top hat, surrounded by clouds, books and quill pens. It announces the performance at the Duchess Theatre in London’s Covent Garden on April 28th, 2025, to mark Terry Pratchett Day. The right side introduces a conversation event with Rhianna Pratchett, hosted by Dan Schreiber, using distressed lettering on a parchment-textured background. Below is a stylised, high-contrast portrait of Rhianna wearing sunglasses, looking over the top of the frames.
