"A lie can run round the world before the truth has got its boots on." --Terry Pratchett, The Truth |
|
For those who really need to know, Terry Pratchett was born in Buckinghamshire, England, in 1948.
He has managed to avoid all the really interesting jobs authors take in order to look good in this kind of biography. In his search for a quiet life, he got a job as a Press Officer with the Central Electricity Generating Board just after Three Mile Island, which shows his unerring sense of timing. Now a full-time writer, he lives in Somerset with his wife and daughter.
He likes people to buy him banana daiquiris (he knows people don't read author biographies, but feels this might be worth a try.
