Terry Pratchett's Bromeliad trilogy (Truckers, Diggers, Wings) is being adapted for CGI-based film by the director of Shrek! Pratchett gets a million bucks for the rights, but, more importantly, he gets an assload of exposure in the USA, where no one appears to have heard of him, despite the fact that 10% of all books sold in the UK are written by him.

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.
