OLL LEWIS: Yesterday's News Today


Yesterday’s News Today

On this day in 1948 Sir Terry Pratchett was born. Although his novels are parodies and satires at heart Pratchett has become the world's greatest living fantasy author, and in my opinion (sorry Tolkien fans) the greatest ever. Since being diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer's Pratchett has campaigned to raise awareness of the disease and funds to improve treatment of the disease and research into a possible cure. Another charitable project he has been involved in is the conservation of Orangutans.
