The Forge: "Hogfather", by Terry Pratchett
Added 2018-12-12 19:09:41 +0000 UTC
Hello, Helpful Humans and Engineers of the foundry!
It's time to announce our next read for the Foundry Forge, this time something appropriate for the season: Terry Pratchett's "The Hogfather".
I'll confess, I've been reading this one for a couple months intermittently at this point, but that's all right! It'll just give me more time to stew on all the clever ways Pratchett maintains a tone and capitalizes on it.
The Foundry Forge
When: Friday, December 22nd, 6:30-7:30pm CST
Where: The Tale Foundry Discord server, in the #the-foundry-forge and #the-foundry-forge-voice channels. Make sure your Patreon account is linked to your Discord account in order to participate (click here to see how). Only Engineers ($10+ patrons) can type in chat, but all patrons can watch and listen.
Topic: This time we'll be searching for material to use in our forthcoming Terry Pratchett series in his book Hogfather. We'll be searching in particular for all the clever ways the author maintains a tone, and all the ways in which he capitalizes on this consistent tone.
Remember: It's a "forge" session because the ultimate goal is to learn and make something up together. Be ready to give your thoughts and your opinions, and feel free to share any resources you might have at your disposal!
Hope to see you all there!—Benji
