I'm actually surprised she went with that since she's so "with talent on loan from God," about her work overall. Maybe her agent was, like, "Look, Steph, it's this or we need a new idea." and her dreams aren't worth transcribing lately.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."
Ok, so I finished my reread of all the Tiffany Achings in preparation for the last new Pratchett. And it is very clear to me that I have been taking an absurdly long time (for me) to do so, because I don't want there to be a last new Pratchett. Am I ready for it now? Should I just embark on a lifetimes denial that the book exists?
I know I'm not ready. I think some day I might be? But not yet.

I may join you in that.
I read it, being of the school of "rip that bandage off", cried at a few points, and then embarked on a re-read of all the witches' books, starting with Equal Rites. I do want to get a nice boxed set of the Aching series for Peanut.
I started. I was definitely not ready. But I don't think I can quit now.
Oh I would like to do that.
I finished. There were tears.

I just came to the realization the Granny Weatherwax would not approve of this plan.
I'm still not ready, but maybe sooner than I thought.
I wasn't ready. I should have waited.
