6. Where and how do I join commercial fan activity? (Terry Pratchett/Discworld)
There are two ongoing UK-based fan efforts pertaining to Terry
Pratchett and his works.
o The Fan Club -- "The Guild of Fans and Disciples"
"The Guild of Fans and Disciples" is the unofficial fan club of
Terry Pratchett and Josh Kirby. It is run on a non profit-making
basis by a group of fans who produce a bi-monthly newsletter
containing reviews, letters, articles and, of course, the latest
news. Terry has no direct involvement in the club, but does supply
them with news and quotes and even makes the occasional appearance in
the letters page.
The cost of one years membership (6 issues of "Ramtop to Rimfall")
is (in pounds sterling):
10.00 in the UK
13.00 in the rest of Europe
15.00 in USA, Canada and Africa
16.00 in the rest of the world
There are GOFAD representatives in Germany, USA & Canada, New
Zealand, and Australia, who can take membership fees in local
currency - details available on the Web site.
Cheques and postal orders should be made payable to "The Guild of
Fans and Disciples". Membership payments can also be made on-line via
a secure service provided by Clarecraft.
