Terry Pratchett
Sir Terence David John Pratchett(born 28 April 1948) is an English novelist, known for his frequently comical work in the fantasy genre. He sold his first story when just 13, and made enough money to buy a second hand typewriter, and has since gone on to be published into 33 languages and has sold more than 45 million books.
Terry worked as a journalist, among other jobs, until he turned to writing full time in 1987. He published the first of his Discworld series in 1983, The Color Of Magic. As far as contemporary English-language satirists go, Terry is one of the most highly regarded, and has won several awards, including being knighted in 2009, and has had bestowed no less than four honorary doctorates from UK Universities.
Pratchett has suffered with ill health from the mid 2000's but remains optimistic stating he'll be right "for at least a few more books yet".
