Happy #InternationalWomensDay 💜 A day to highlight and celebrate women's independence, strength, resilience and self-determination. We think this powerful quote from Terry Pratchett captures the spirit perfectly. It can mean so many different things to so many people. What does it mean to you? "The only hat worth wearing was the one you made for yourself, not one you bought, not one you were given. Your own hat, for your own head. Your own future, not someone else's." — Terry Pratchett, A Hat Full of Sky #Discworld #TiffanyAching #TerryPratchett #WitchesOfDiscworld

#TerryPratchett once said about his ‘modern’ Quaderno: “You could anchor a ship with my old Olivetti. Goodbye bricks, this laptop is portable. The Quaderno cost me almost £600. It is the desktop PC I bought in 1987 shrunk to A5 size and weighing a little over 2lb… I took good care of it. Although I have no particular need of it, I can’t bring myself to throw away what is now vintage technology.” Today is #CleanYourDeskDay, perhaps it’s time to clear out the old to make room for something new!

Today in Ankh-Morpork: It's Tumpers! 🧂🗡 "TUMPERS It quickly became a tradition for the whole Guild to process to the Tump, where the new boys would be sprinkled with salt to instill them with wit for their coming years at CS, 'sal' meaning both salt and wit, and puns being the lowest form of the latter. Later this became a means of raising funds for Guild charities. Every year on 12 January, boys from the school go out in pairs on to the streets of Ankh-Morpork. One carries a stoneware pot of salt, the other a leather drawstring purse. They accost passers-by and encourage them to make a donation to the Guild. When they receive money, the donor is given a pinch of salt and everyone feels embarrassed.” The Ankh-Morpork Archives - Volume 1 by Terry Pratchett & Stephen Briggs 🔗 bit.ly/The-Ankh-Morpo… If you're out in the streets today, watch for polite young gentlemen offering you a charitable pinch... #TerryPratchett #SirTerryPratchett #Discworld #DiscworldOfficial

Some of you may fondly recall Terry winning the ✨ Bollinger Everyman Wodehouse Prize ✨ back in 2012 for his brilliant #Discworld novel Snuff. Every year, this award for Comic Fiction goes to the novels that truly tickle the funny bone. To celebrate its 25th anniversary, all 25 past winners have been thrown into a magnificent showdown. The one that makes the esteemed judges chuckle the loudest will be awarded the Vintage Bollinger Prize crown. We're heading out now to the glitzy London ceremony being held tonight, ready to raise a glass (or two) to Terry's enduring wit. Fingers and toes are well and truly crossed. Who knows? 📚 bit.ly/Terry-Pratchet… 🍃 It may look idyllic, but the countryside isn’t all flowers and thatched cottages and bracing walks in your best tweed... #TerryPratchett #discworldofficial

The Roundworld Year for 2026 shall be known as 🥁🥁🥁 The Year of the Curious Squid. 🌊 #Discworld #discworldofficial #terrypratchett
