Have you ever tried dancing the Morris?

Today's Guest Spotlight is well known to anyone who has ever attended (and quacked at) a Discworld Convention. A Convention staple, Pat Harkin is well known to previous attendees as our Ducktioneer and Maskerade MC!

What better way to start the month than by wishing a very happy birthday to Colin Smythe - Sir Terry Pratchett's friend, 'discoverer', and first publisher. We hope you have a wonderful day and an amazing year to come!

Today's Guest Spotlight is another long-time friend of the convention: it's Jan Harkin! Jan, also known as "that poor woman" (and, on one memorable occasion, as "Pat's carer") is a retired physician and experienced auctioneer wrangler who has dipped her toes in literary research to bring us 'A Stroke of the Pen'. Welcome back for 2026, Jan!
