One of my all time favorite fantasy authors, Sir Terry Pratchett, has passed away at the age of 66 after a long battle with Alzheimer's. BBC News article. His Discworld series is a must read for anyone who has never had the pleasure of experiencing his work. May he Rest in Peace.

He told a funny story that the most creative job he ever had was writing press releases for the nuclear industry. I hope he's still out there enjoying a laugh at the absurd. Legion Worlds NINE - wait, there's even more ongoing amazing adventures? Yup, and you'll only find them in the Bits o' Legionnaire Business Forum.

All my favorite authors are passing on. That tells me my years are closer to end than beginning. His take on humanity and their peccadilloes was one that informed me of much of mine. Damn you, you kids! Get off my lawn or I'm callin' tha cops! Something pithy!
