Pratchett in the land of Oz

This article about comedic sci-fi author Terry Pratchett has some interesting quips. The Discworld Convention is going on in Melbourne and the reporter gets some comments from Pratchett -- the auteur of the renowned Discworld collection.

Most notable of his comments are:

-- How he met Arthur C. Clarke at a young age
-- Making social comments via sock puppets

It sounds like a fun event...a bit of a travel if you live in the U.S. though. Just the same, I'm glad that prolific writers can gather with their readers and coalesce over great fiction.

Fans of the series should feel free to comment here.
