wossnameFirst a blue plaque in his local library, now a possible – probable?! – bronze statue in Salisbury!
"Although Salisbury City Council's services committee has backed the plans, money still needs to be raised to build it and planning consent also needs to be obtained... The campaign to build the statue is being led by Mr Kidby with the support of Sir Terry's family... The aim is to pay for the statue through crowd-funding and sponsorship from local companies. A[sic] initial sketch has been made by the artist, but it will take about six months to build the life-size sculpture. 'It would be Terry, life-sized standing on a granite base which will have a depiction of Discworld on it. People would hopefully be able to stand next to Terry and hopefully interact with it,' said Mr Kidby."
