Terry Pratchett is planning a visit to SL. Odd, I imagined him to be already a resident, with his own sim where he spends hours each day constructing a world to flesh out his literary ones. I would be.
A sim is prepared for him, a South Pacific tropical island, modeled on the island Nation featured in Terry’s new novel, simply titled ‘NATION’, complete with scenes and locations from the book. A treasure hunt will lead users through a series of clues to find virtual books and treasure as well as physical-world prizes. There will also be themed quiz nights, special events and fancy dress competitions.
A lot of residents are into Discworld - there’s a Ning for Discworld followers in SL
In a fun opportunity for Discworld fans across the globe, Terry will appear on The Nation and take part in a live question and answer session with fans, on 9th October. When I get that time in SL, I will post it for you.
