Nonfiction
Most of these are short articles, but they also include lectures, speeches, published letters and other ephemera. Most do not have separate articles elsewhere, and where that’s the case we haven’t bothered with a shortcut template. We’ll also only add pieces here which are specifically discussed in podcasts or other shows documented on the wiki; for a longer list, see the contents of the collection A Slip of the Keyboard, or the “Articles and Speeches” page on the L-Space wiki.

Footnotes
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 A template with this abbreviated name has been set up to allow for quickly linking to this book. Type the acronym in braces, e.g. {{RM}} will produce Reaper Man. These have been matched to those used by the L-Space Wiki. Where a book's title or obvious abbreviation would conflict with that of a podcast, the book is given precedence and a "P" (for "podcast") is appended to the podcast's abbreviation; for example RMP for the Radio Morpork podcast. These shortcuts can also be used to link to the L-Space wiki or Wikipedia entry for the same book; just append |ls or |w after the abbreviation inside the braces respectively. e.g. {{D|ls}} will produce Diggers, and {{D|w}} will produce Diggers.
- ↑ 2.0 2.1 The original and revised editions of The Carpet People are significantly different, and we don’t really consider them the same book, so we’ve listed it twice here. Terry clearly preferred the new version or he’d not have rewritten it, though, so like other sites we only have one article.
- ↑ The Unadulterated Cat is definitely not a novel, but it's a full-length humour book which contains plenty of fiction, so we feel it fits best in this list.
- ↑ This was a serialised story; date is for the first instalment.
- ↑ First published in a limited edition hardcover of The Long Earth; Pratchett gives a year for the story as 1986 in his note about the story in that book and A Blink of the Screen.
