William de Worde is a boring fellow, he suffers from
a total lack of bezazz, it’s a difficult task I set myself
to read ‘The Truth’ by Terry Pratchett again, having
solved the conflicts in my characters’ lives I wanted
to relax, but wading through the murky waters of De
Worde’s life is not conducive to that end, the only nod
To the DiscWorld’s magic is Gaspode, the talking dog,
while the new firm led by Mr Pin and enlivened by the
addicted Mr Tulip, simply obscures the magic world,
with the interesting Patrician Lord Vetinari out cold
or not doing anything and Commander Vimes just a
shadowy figure in the background and the powerful
Chairs conducting the narrative, it’s a chore to carry
on, without the colourful Mustrum Ridcully to shout
at people and no Granny Weatherwax to astound a
reader, traveling through the book is hard work and
‘Soul Music’ is ready to be opened again and Susan
will save the life of Imp Y Celyn - now that my own
Heroine is at peace I have to contend with a broken
tooth and to add to my woes, I cut my own hair and
it’s a disaster of magnificent proportions of course -
if only I had solved the conflict in my characters’ lives
before seeking solace in destroying something in my
own little world - luckily a hairstyle disintegrating is a
Very small problem in the larger scheme of things, or
I really hope so, at least…
