Wot’s All This Then?
Sadly, the days of new Discworld stories are behind us, but there are still a whole lot of us Kevins*, out and about in the Roundworld, getting up to all kinds of shenanigans** of varying natures. So that’s what this site is for, to try and collect examples of Kevin Output and present it to other Kevins for them to look at and go “Cor, that’s quite good”
There are, of course, limitations on what type of content we’ll have on here, such as no unlicensed commercial products, nothing damaging to the legacy, brand(s) etc…
Frequently Made Up Questions (FMUQ)
“But why? We’ve already got Facebook/Twitter/Reddit et al.”
Well there’s an entire book which covers my reasoning quite well, but in short, I thought a dedicated space away from big tech/AI/money for fans to retreat to would be something nice to give back to the community.
“Is there anything else hereabouts?”
Why yes, there’s currently a modern version of a ye olde style community forum (coming soon…), once again for people who want to escape the Reacher Gilts of the world. I’m trying to drag people away from convenience and back to a simpler time of community sites, so I’m not going all in just yet, but if it proves to be popular then we’ll see what else we can do!
There is also a Discord server, The Grand Trunk – Roundworld Tower. If this site ever becomes popular enough to warrant it, I may look into a self hosted alternative in-line with the ethos of this site, but for now you can find it at https://discord.com/invite/cUcrDe9hKk if Discord is your thing.
“I have a Kevin Related Shenanigan (KRS) that I wish to have included on the site, can I tell you?”
Fantastic, I’m terribly lazy so that will be a big help. Head over to the content suggestion page and let me know!
*The collective noun for a group of Discworld fans, as coined by Lyn Pratchett
