Discworld-"What I Did On My Holidays"

Really wished this book was real, and it's all just a picture book on the events of "The Color of Magic" and "The Light Fantastic"

And hey!, it's my first time drawing Rincewind and Two-Flower! Let's go!!!!

Rincewind is living in a horror thriller book while Twoflower is living in an adventure/found family book.

Inside every sane person there's a madman struggling to get out, said the shopkeeper, that's what I've always thought. No one goes mad quicker than a totally sane person.

-Terry Pratchett, The Light Fantastic (via the Cursed Shopkeeper)

..........................

Reading this gave me a double take because this theme is carried throughout almost all the books, especially among main characters. The Witches Series have loads of characters like these, Vimes has his mad dark alter-ego, the Vampire always live at the edge, the Rats from Maurice and his Talented Rodents, the Wizards from Sourcery, Rincewind when he loses all self-control, Jeremy Clockson.

You'd think it's a throwaway quote from the early books but it is not. It is a theme Terry Pratchett always played around with. Amazing. Truly Amazing.

Cohen had heard of fighting fair, and had long ago decided he wanted no part of it.

I made some luggage stickers!!!!!!!! I loved revisiting this old sketch - did you know somebody even got one of my luggage sketches tattooed on them???? :0 wild!!!!

I took some of these stickers to a local con but.... nobody got them..... I hoped it at least looked like a D&D mimic if people weren't recognizing the character from the books...

Unseen University had never admitted women, muttering something about problems with the plumbing, but the real reason was an unspoken dread that if women were allowed to mess around with magic they would probably be embarrassingly good at it.
