The following DiscWorld will be... - Science Fiction Fantasy Chronicles: forums

Probably I Shall Wear Midnight! Pratchett spoke about voice-typing-software or whatever you call it and gave some examples why it's wrong with it but concluded with:

However, it's helped me write a large chunk of I Shall Wear Midnight[.]

Oooh. Sounds interesting.

Last of the Tiffany Aching books.

Unseen Academicals will be out in October.

Who says it's going to be the last?

I read a quote from him just after he announced he had Altzhimers, he said he was planning to finish the current Discworld book he was on and then write one more. That was a while ago now, though, so things might have changed.

I would imagine that would probably depend on how his Alzheimers progresses?

As far as I know does Pratchett live behind his keyboard. So, not writing couldn't be an option, right?

Terry has a july update posted on the pjsmprints news page where he talks about Unseen Academicals and the Dragon voice software that he's using. I generally check that page evey month and it's not a bad source of info to be honest. There's also a couple of entries in Wikipedia re his two latest novels that may be of interest.....

Pterry himself and unless he changes his mind I will take that as read.

Where did he say that?

Who's Wee Dug · 18th September 2009, 12:49 AM

Convention or in Wincanton when I last spoke to him.

Marky Lazer · 26th September 2009, 10:17 AM

Pfff... and you believe him?

Well, if it's true, that is a bummer!

Terry: Well it depends on my state of health, but I’m writing another children’s book at the moment, and I’m involved with that. I’ve always got a few books planned for the future.

i think that there is going to be one more Making Money dude thing.. the last Tiffany book, another standalone along the lines of Montrous Regiment. and then to cap it off a Watch one where Sam dies.. which ofc will feature all the prominent chras help solve his murder or what like..
