The Terry Pratchett (Good Omens) Project
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
EDIT 25 JAN 2008
Getting closer and closer, and the collection is GORGEOUS! We've got a fabulous bunch of art that any author would be proud to have! More is better! More more more!
Also, IF YOU HAVE SOMETHING YOU'D LIKE TO SAY ESPECIALLY TO TERRY - your feelings, about the artwork, whatever - send me a note and I can attach it to your artwork. Adds a special touch
I am so excited! When I've finished everything, it will be posted here in the format I'm using. Starting to look like a real book! 
------------------------------------------------------------------------
EDIT 16 JAN 2008
Here's a listing of club members who've already submitted work to the project. If you should be there, let me know!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
For those who don't know already: Terry is dealing with a serious health situation.
Then ~CaptainQuirk suggested sending a mass email of Good Omens art and well wishes to Terry Pratchett, and it got me to thinking. After exploring other groups and individuals gathering work for the same purpose, I’d like to ask if the members of *goodomens would care to join in a similar project. This event will be largely Good Omens art , though some crossovers from Terry's other works are allowable - just make sure GO characters involved. (There are also other clubs and individuals gathering Discworld art, such as =JesIdres.)
So...
Between now and January 31, 2007, I’ll be collecting Good Omens artwork from members of this club to make a group of .pdf “scrapbooks” to email to Terry. (If I can scrape together the cash, I may get it printed out, but we'll see... If anyone wants to donate to that cause, I won't turn down the cash but I'm not begging for it either. If you do, there's no set amount. Contact me if you do want to.) For this collection, you may designate work you’ve already done, or draw something completely new, and you may certainly submit more than one thing. Everything you send will be fully credited to you, and I can include any captions or notations for the artwork that you like. Whatever you want to include in this project, send a link of the picture to *goodomens or ~quantum-witch, email the file directly to me at quantum-witch [@] hotmail.com, or just make a comment down below here.
This is entirely voluntary of course, but YOU must directly participate by letting me know what works to use, whether they be old or new. It's not for me to decide by going through the gallery and taking whatever looks good. I NEED YOUR PERMISSION.
Here are some excellent ideas for new artwork:
- Scenes from the book itself
- Studies of characters
- Comical parodies (PG-13 rating, at the most)
- General “get well” wishes
REMEMBER: IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE ALL BRAND NEW ART! Older work is perfectly fine!
You all have fantastic imaginations!
Let’s try to avoid serious or maudlin sentiments, as Terry himself is being very upbeat about the situation, bless him. One thing to keep in mind – Terry has often expressed his appreciation of fan art in general, but he does not really approve of his characters being slashed. Therefore:
- NO SLASH
Though it would be very nice, meaningful, and certainly attention-catching to send a huge project from a club that loves his work, it’s certainly not the only way to go. You can send things on your own, through email or snail mail. Either way, the sentiment will be clear.
Here is the contact information for Terry through his agent (who is very polite – I’ve already had contact regarding a package I sent myself):

EDIT: 4 JAN 2008
Just received an email from Colin Smythe, telling me that my personal package arrived, that he couldn't resist peeking in, and greatly enjoyed the art. I think we'll be much appreciated in everything we send to Terry.
