From Discworld & Terry Pratchett Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

"Guybrush" is Ben McKenzie, a performer, writer, educator and game designer based on Wurundjeri land in Melbourne, Australia. He’s a admin for this wiki. His favourite dinosaur is Stegosaurus, his favourite element is helium, and his favourite Pratchett books include Small Gods, Truckers, The Amazing Maurice and his Educated Rodents, Nation and Thud!, though please don’t ask him to pick just one.

He's done many things, but the one most relevant to this wiki is probably Pratchat, a book club style podcast in which he and co-host Elizabeth Flux read and discuss every Terry Pratchett novel, one a month, with guests. A side project is the Guild of Recappers & Podcasters, a wiki which documents and cross references episodes of podcasts discussing Pratchett’s works. (There have been many!) He also had a fanzine in the 90s in which he reviewed new Discworld books, among other things, and directed a student theatre production of Mort in 1998.
