1. Editorial
Welcome to issue 210. After the hectic and wonderful month of August I was hoping that September would be less dramatic. But with two new books released I've had plenty to read and I've also had some minor surgery which leaves me writing this month's issue in bed. My apologies for the lateness of this issue. Partly it was because I've been enjoying the rest.
Due to the size of this issue already, I'm holding off on the Discworld casting again this month. Discworld casting will return when we have a quieter month.
A friend, and fellow Discworld fan, Adele Kirby is currently running a kickstarter campaign for an audio fitness training system called Apocalypse Survival Training: an audio fitness adventure app. The basic premise is that you are a survival of an alien invasion and must run away from the alien invasion but whereas other audio fitness systems are purely based on running, Adele's system will include full workouts.

BBC Radio 4 will be broadcasting a radio adaptation of Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman's Good Omens in December. It is due to air on consecutive days with the final being a double length episode. From the details I've seen so far there is a lot of great talent involved in the adaptation.

It should be noted that this is in addition to rather than instead of the TV adaptation of Good Omens due next year.
Neil Gaiman's introduction to A Slip Of The Keyboard has been published by the Guardian newspaper. Neil's thought provoking and emotive essay entitled 'Terry Pratchett isn't jolly. He's angry' is a beautifully written but hard to read account of Neil losing a friend in Terry due to his PCA. Rob (Terry's business manager) read this out at the Convention (twice) and each time there was barely a dry eye in the room.

Literary Lacquers, founded by Amy Milder in 2012, is an innovative independent nail polish company. Amy's passion for literature, beauty and nail polish drive her creativity and business; all of her polishes are inspired by great literary works, passages and series. Literary lacquer polishes are all 3-free and are packaged and shipped with 100% recyclable materials (www.etsy.com/shop/LiteraryLacquer).
In 2007, Sir Pratchett announced to the world that he is living and writing with early onset Alzheimer's, or as he refers to it "The Embuggerance". Instead of ceasing his creativity and publicity, Sir Pratchett became a financial donor and guest blogger on Alzheimer's Research UK (www.dementiablog.org, www.alzheimersresearchuk.org), and continues to write and interact with fans via social media. Earlier this year marked the first time that Sir Pratchett cancelled a public appearance due to the effects of The Embuggerance.
To honour Sir Pratchett's work and his charity work with Alzheimer's Research UK, Literary Lacquers has designed a limited edition charity polish, Luggage For Your Journey. In the Discworld novels, The Luggage is a recurring character that travels, protects (at times voraciously) and accompanies the wizard Rincewind. The Luggage is otherworldly, and yet becomes integral into the fabric of Discworld. This polish is designed to honour Sir Terry Pratchett's amazing literary career, to thank him for the journey into other realms and to serve as a reminder that there is always a companion for life's many journeys.
The bottles of Luggage For Your Journey will be sold for 12USD and 5USD from each bottle will be donated to Alzheimer's Research UK. The polish will be sold as a preorder only from 10/9/14- 10/17/14.
To coincide with the paperback release of Raising Steam a new blog on Waterstones' website discusses Terry's influences for writing Raising Steam.

Also newly released is Mrs Bradshaw's Handbook
Fully illustrated and replete with useful titbits, Mrs Bradshaw's Handbook offers a view of the Sto Plains like no other.
Authorised by Mr Lipwig of the Ankh-Morpork and Sto Plains Hygienic Railway himself, Mrs Georgina Bradshaw's invaluable guide to the destinations and diversions of the railway deserves a place in the luggage of any traveller, or indeed armchair traveller, upon the Disc.

With regards to Holly Blair's letter last month and your comment about mushrooms, thought you might like to know that some seamstresses will indeed own a mushroom:

DWM replies: Yes, we can see how that might hurt if used (in)correctly.
* From: "Dave Hough" davefromdiscwo@aol.com
Are there any Terry Pratchett Societies / Clubs / meetings in Bristol, UK or anyone interested in Discworld or Terry Pratchett Books in General.
Or are there any of his plays being acted in Bristol.
Reading through every Discworld Monthly, I find that Bristol does appear a little left out on this subject.
DWM replies: Well, are there any fellow Bristolians that can help Dave out?
4. DiscTrivia
Last month in the trivia I asked who is Keith? And was expecting the answer that he was the "stupid looking kid" according to Maurice. I have since been informed that one of the Ankh-Morpork hippos is also called Keith (the other is Roderick - see Feet of Clay) so my apologies for any confusion.
This month I've opened Turtle Recall at random pages and found a question from each page visited. I've attempted, wherever possible, to include which book the answer belongs to. Hopefully some of the questions are easy and some are quite hard. Well at least I think they are...
The (hopefully correct) answers can be found at the end of this issue.
5. Review: Dragons at Crumbling Castle
Reviewed by Jason Anthony
Dragons at Crumbling Castle is a collection of fourteen stories written by Terry as a teenager when he was a junior reporter at the Bucks Free Press. The stories are just a selection of those he wrote in a weekly series for the paper. You may even recognise a couple of the stories because they became the basis for Terry's first novel. Tales of The Carpet People and Another Tale of the Carpet People are both considerably longer stories than the other twelve - and possibly show which characters Terry had more interest in developing further.
According to Terry's introduction most of the stories appear as they were first published but with the odd tweak here and there.
One thing most of the stories have in common is their simplicity. Don't read this expecting the same prose that you get in the Discworld series. These stories whilst funny were written by a young man learning his skills. The character names, while funny, are often very cheesy. Whether that is because they were funny or they were written that way to meet a particular audience it is not clear.
The book is beautifully presented and filled with wonderful illustrations by Mark Beech in a style reminiscent of Mervyn Peake. The book also eschews normal typographical rules by mixing text sizes and fonts without a care. Some pages are even printed white on black...
Each of the stories has its own charm - it's a very simple book to read and really is aimed at children. Most of the stories are a build up to a simple punchline that are quite clearly signposted but still make you chuckle or groan depending on when you work them out.
I really like this book. It gives a beautiful insight into just how much Terry developed in his career from a young inexperienced author from those early days as a journalist into the wonderfully confident master craftsman he became. Well worth a read for any Pratchett fan.
You can purchase it now in the UK

6. Review: Discworld Diary 2015 First and Last Aid. We R Igors.
Reviewed by Jason Anthony
After a considerable absence the Discworld Diaries are back. This time produced by the team at The Cunning Artificer in Wincanton. We R Igors is a beautifully illustrated week per double page diary.
Being an Igor diary you can expect there to be some lisps. For example the month after July is listed as Augutht and the following month Theptember.
Each week includes the full 7a days - Monday to Octeday - and normally has a funny / anecdotal piece about Igors in the Octeday section. For example the Octeday in week commencing July 6th suggests: The Ear-mouse is just one of the many new "Beathtieth" appearing as a by-product of bio-artificing. Nosey the rat and Lippy the frog are also contributing, in their own way, to this new science. Testing on animals somehow seems more sporting; a radish can't run away.
The diary is full of fascinating bits of information including but not limited to Igor donor cards, Igor family trees and standard contracts of employment for Igors, including the inevitable get-out clause should the employer upset the locals and they turn up with flaming pitchforks.
While the diary can technically be used as a diary, it's almost too nice for that. I suspect the answer is to purchase two copies. One to deface, use and enjoy and the other to keep as part of your collection.
My copy came direct from The Cunning Artificer's shop and came with a beautifully illustrated approximately A3 poster (that I've now put in a frame and mounted) of many of the Igors and Igorinas that feature in the diary.
The diary has a rrp of 16.99 inc VAT in the UK and can be ordered (with the poster) direct from discworldmonthly.co.uk/url/WRI210A
7. Programming for The Great Discworld Fan Meet At Sasquan (WorldCon 2015, in Spokane, Washington)
Written by: Dj Connell
We've been in touch with Sasquan (WorldCon 2015, in Spokane, Washington) about the Discworld panels we'd like to see offered there for The Great Discworld Fan Gathering at that convention. We have suggested, among others, the ever popular NADWCon panels titled "The Science of Discworld" and "The Tech of Discworld", "The Women of Discworld" and "Folklore, World Myths, Ancient Legends and The Discworld".
Are there classes, panels, events, or meets you'd like to see there, either for kids or adults? Let us know using the link noted below.
We can and will suggest the names of people many of you folks know from previous NADWCons for these panels and events, and we are always looking for new people who can add to our sum of knowledge.
We will be working closely with the Chair of Events and the Chair of Programming for Sasquan, and we will be gathering and recommending folks for *every* Discworld panel and event until May 1st, 2015. If you wish to be included on a panel - or want to suggest some good ideas - please use the Sasquan Program Idea form:
sasquan.org/program/idea-form/
For further information on Discworld Programming at Sasquan, please follow the blog "It Bodes" (it-bodes.blogspot.com/) and/or like and follow the facebook/Twitter pages for North American Discworld Convention (www.facebook.com/NADWCon).

8. Review: The Ankh Morpork Discworld Jigsaw
Reviewed by Dave Williams
The Ankh Morpork Discworld Jigsaw - Fiendishly difficult - Oh yes
At the Discworld Convention the Discworld Emporium launched a new 1000 piece jigsaw, showing the city of Ankh-Morpork. It says on the box, 'Not suitable for children under 3, people with short attention spans or those of a nervous disposition.' Can it really be that hard?
Well, I did it, and it took me about 25 hours - and I am not a novice at jigsaws. The detail is amazing, even at the finished size of 69cm by 48cm, and you can make out not only the individual houses and buildings, but also people and animals in the street. This is that same pic that forms the back of the double sided map in the Compleat Ankh-Morpork book, which I would recommend if you want a bigger scale guide. The box lid really doesn't do it justice, and will give you a headache if you try to look at it as a guide. You can, and generally will, need to do it just by seeing where pieces fit, but the different city parts have different styles and colour plans, so that helps. And you really need good light for it.
Is it fiendishly difficult? I'd say yes, and the staggered offset cut, like the old Spears jigsaws, helps with achieving that. Will I do it again? Give me a few months and yes, it will come back out of the box. Would I recommend it? If you like a challenging puzzle, and can spare the table for enough hours, have patience and determination, then yes, it really is a challenge.
