Neil Interviews Terry Pratchett

Neil interviews his “Good Omens” Co-Author Terry Pratchett about his new novel, “Snuff”.

NG: How has writing the Discworld novels changed how you see the world?

TP: I think it more true that getting older changes how you see the world. There is stuff in Snuff, for example, that I couldn’t have written at twenty-five. Although I had written things before Discworld, I really leaned writing, on the job as it were, on Discworld. I think that the books are, if not serious, dealing with more serious subjects. These days it’s not just for laughs. My world view had changed; sometimes I feel that the world is made up of sensible people who know that plot and bloody idiots who don’t. Of course, all Discworld fans know the plot by heart!
