Today is Sir Terry Pratchett's birthday. So, why not celebrate with some of the easter eggs we have in Good Omens that are all about him.
Mind how you go.

So you remember in that interview when Neil said Azicrow were actually supposed to be one character but then Terry suggested that they should split it into two and they did?
Technically it probably would have been bowtie and book nerd who is actually like sassiest little shit ever, queer as fuck and has his own category of gender. Reminds of you of anyone?

"The whole of life is just like watching a film. Only it's though you always get in ten minutes after the big picture has started, and no-one will tell you the plot, so you have to work it out all yourself from the clues."

I like to do this thing every now and then where I compare my old artworks to my new ones, because I find it fascinating to see my progression over the years. I'm always struck with how much about it has changed, yet how much has stayed the same. And Sam Vimes is the perfect subject for this, because I just don't quit drawing him. XD
Here's to many more years of art to come!
Also, today happens to be Sir Terry Pratchett's birthday! As he himself wrote: "A man is not dead while his name is still spoken". Thank you Pterry for sharing your passion, humor and imagination with us through your books. It means the world.

A dream fanfic by NaturallyTeal ~ 10th Day
Happy Terry Pratchett’s Birthday (28.04.1948) everyone!!! 🎈🎁🎂💐❣️
Tumblr media
Summary:
The Secret Dream Diary of a Good Omens fan (anonymous, he) who contracted a severe case of the fandom-typical brain rot from watching S1 & S2 too often, reading too much fanfic on AO3, and spending altogether too much time engaging on tumblr, digesting gifs, fanart and meta.
He dreams about Good Omens every night.
Short dreams, daily.
~~~
10th Day: The Long Globe
I dreamed that Terry was sitting in his armchair in the bookshop, reading to me from “The Long Earth”. I was spilled over the couch like a Crowley, listening in reverence. The doorbell chimed and Joshua hurried in, greeting Terry like the old friend he naturally was, and telling him we had to get a wiggle on, the Second Coming wouldn’t summon itself. Adam, the young one, would be waiting for us at the Globe in the seventh universe to the right.
Terry donned his hat and scarf and took the white marble bust of Adam under his wing.
[previous day]
I’m planning to post one _short_ dream daily, for 20 days. If you like, subscribe on AO3!
There’s also a “mailing list” (tagging in the replies) here on tumblr, let me know if you want on it! 😇😎

So I might be super late to the party, but is the Night Watch barricade scene based on Les Miserables ?

From the Neil Gaiman: Dream Dangerously :) (you can watch here in US or with US vpn :) <3) (or just this bit on youtube here :))
Terry Pratchett: Neil once said, 'Your fans all look jolly. And my fans all look as if they're about to commit suicide. Wouldn't it be nice if we could get them to marry?'

Reading a Terry Pratchett book is literally just: Here's a funny little joke Here's something that you can tell is a joke but don't get and will only figure out five years later Here's a surprisingly cool fantasy concept Here's a unique and well written simile Here's a lil guy Here's something that has aged depressingly well into the modern day Here's something that has aged remarkably queer into the modern day Here's a character that you can barely understand what he's saying Here is the most terrifying and deeply disturbing concept you have ever heard, casually mentioned Here is the dumbest fucking pun you've ever heard but in the best way Here is a quote so profound that it makes you view morality and the world in a different way Here is a plot twist that you can't tell if it's genius or stupid Congratulations! You've finished the book! It has fundamentally changed you as a person and you will never be the same!
