1. Terry Pratchett

posted by Neil Gaiman
I woke up and my email was all condolences from friends, and requests for statements from journalists, and I knew it had happened. I'd been warned.

Thirty years and a month ago, a beginning author met a young journalist in a Chinese Restaurant, and the two men became friends, and they wrote a book, and they managed to stay friends despite everything. Last night, the author died.

There was nobody like him. I was fortunate to have written a book with him, when we were younger, which taught me so much.

This was the last thing I wrote about Terry. I knew his death was coming and it made it no easier:

I'll miss you, Terry.

I'm not up to writing anything yet. Maybe one day.

2.

On the occasion of my upcoming birthday, and the birth of Baby the Second, Snarkspot will henceforth be known as A Moment of Jen. Just not feeling very snarky these days ... mostly sleepy. It may or may not last.

In the weeks leading up to the publication of Certain Girls (April 8), my plan is to post on Tuesdays and Fridays. We'll see how that goes too.
