Terry Pratchett has died

[MrsPurchase]

I'm gutted.

I think he must have left the instructions of what to post Blue

I think you're right, Jason - seems like him; he'd been facing this day head on for a while now.

Oh no what awful news. I'm really sad about this. I hope he went as peacefully as possible. My thoughts are with his family.

I'm actually sniffling here at work Knowing it was coming, but oh, what a loss!

So sad :(

Heartbreaking. Rest easy, Sir Terry, free of your embuggerance.

Dh actually shed a tear.

Oh no! He was a wonderfully witty and humane writer. So sad.

I'm still crying. Tears just dripping onto my legs. Thank God it's the middle of the night here and no one else is up. :(

I agree that Christmases will never be the same again now; I also always used to get the new hardback as soon as it came out. Pre-ordered, usually.

I'm so glad I got to meet him at the first Discworld Convention.

Very, very sad. A genius

Goodnight Terry, sweet dreams

Death isn't cruel - just terribly terribly good at his job

RIP Terry Pratchett you wrote the only books that would always cheer me up no matter how bad I was feeling

Such a sad day and so many lost words now.

Tears from my DS too as he has just started reading the books.

I'm so glad I got to see him speak at Melbourne University, over ten years ago...

There is nothing I can say that hasn't already been said. The world is a dimmer place without him,

God I'm crying... I wouldn't usually at someone famous, but I've been a fan for so long, been to a few book signings too. RIP PTerry.

I'm in tears :(

My thoughts go out to his family. At least now he's free of the embuggerance.

Sir Terry.
Thank you for always beating the bullies in your books.
Thank you for kick arse girls,women and crones.
Thank you for a world where everybody shuffles along nicely unless they are bullies.
Thank you for your humour.
Thank you for Sam Vimes being a good dad and reading to Young Sam.
Thanks you for witches that were 'well wicked' not wicked.
The light outside of the City Watch House will dim tonight.
SQUEAK.

I love his books, I've read them over and over again. The Long Earth books have just got me through chemotherapy. As a pp said, it feels like a friend has died. I feel so sad for his family and Rob, his assistant, but also, rather selfishly, that I'll never again open a new Discworld book, with all its promise.

Thank you, Sir Terry, and RIP.

Another one in tears here. RIP and thank you Sir Terry.
