Sir Terry Pratchett died today.
He was one of my favorite authors and greatest inspirations.
A reader once compared my writing to his, which is among the most treasured compliments I've had in my life.
More details from the BBC.

Addendum: see also this 2009 interview.

Good grief
From google:
Dear Blogger User,
This week, you received an email telling you about some changes we were making to the Blogger Content Policy. In that email, we announced a change to Blogger's porn policy stating that blogs that distributed sexually explicit images or graphic nudity would be made private.
We've received lots of feedback about making a policy change that impacts longstanding blogs and the negative impact on individuals who post sexually explicit content to express their identities.We appreciate the feedback. Instead of making this change, we will be maintaining our existing policies...
So apparently I trashed all the images here for nothing. And of course there's no option to revert the changes. As Charlie Brown would say: “Aaarrrgghhh.”

Hide your sensitive eyes
I have been notified by Google that they will no longer allow sexually explicit images on blogger.com, and that blogs not in compliance (mine) will be blocked.
This explains why you now see
everywhere there used to be a beautiful photograph of people doing what loving people actually do in their normal healthy consensual adult relationships. (Or panties. I had lots of pictures of panties.)
May the precious little snowflakes at Google sleep peacefully now. As for me, I'm going to go watch some religious beheadings on youtube (a Google company).
