He also needs to stop harping on about Vimes all the time now.

afaik, he dictates a lot now. i think he's trying to tie up loose ends with the stories, but it's not working out well. have you read the last hero?

# i'm just wondering
if the face-to-face picture of rincewind and the patrician is intended to make them look almost identical or not. after all, rincewind's mother apparently ran away before he was born. separated at birth, perhaps?

# I remember that picture. Could be, but if it was it was probably just done on artistic licence by Kidby.

# Snuff is a mess.
It reads like a lucid dream compared to the earlier stuff. It's well written, just there's no tension or momentum. It's a bit sad really.

i still want a dragon, but i've not decided where to put it

# Mine would either be on my neck, which I've heard is a bad idea for a first tattoo
or on my upper arm. Not sure what the price of such a small tattoo would be, but I promised not to be daft with money this year.

If I had a dragon, I'd get it on my arm or back.

# yeah, the neck isn't a great place
nor are ankles. the one i'm getting soon will be on my inner forearm, which is where it's meant to go. it's plain black, so should only cost me about 35 quid. if i get my hotpicks in the next few weeks, i'll get it done.

# I wouldn't ever want anything with too much detail, so something like a logo or symbol would be okay.
Especially after seeing how things like portraits can go horribly wrong. Text is also a possibility.
