Sir Terry Pratchett has died of Alzheimer's Disease · 8:30pm Mar 12th, 2015
This was, unfortunately, simply not the way it was supposed to happen. Alzheimer's Disease was supposed to die of Pratchett.
I have been reading his books since I was... perhaps 15 or 16. He taught me about people, and brightened my cynicism enough to let me see things clearly. He has easily been as big an influence on me as anything else I have ever read or watched.
