Rhianna Pratchett would like to put certain rumors to rest for once and for all. "Since this question is doing the rounds again - No I don't intend on writing more Discworld novels, or giving anyone else permission to. They are sacred to Dad. I will be involved with spin-offs, adaptations and tie-ins, but that's it. Discworld is his legacy. I shall make my own."

I'm not surprised

 

[Tonyblack]

Yeah - there has been speculation about that for ages. Let's hope this statement puts the rumour to rest.

 

[Penfold]

Well said Rhianna, I just hope people will listen.

She must be getting pretty fed up with having to keep repeating it.

It's now being reported as "news" when both Terry & Rhianna made it clear a few years ago that she was never going to continue writing the novels. I'd be fed up repeating it if I were her as well.

In other breaking news, the sky is blue, clouds are white and Rincewind runs away!

Good for her - it's more than getting old now

Rhianna has so much wonderful talent herself and has done phenomenal writing in other media. I'd be pretty pissed too if people expected me to abandon my own works to pick up where my father left off. Let her shine by the light of her own sun!
