	Terry Pratchett - Equal Rites excerpt
		Granny was old and tired and not entirely clear about things after a long day, but to survive as a witch requires an ability to jump to very large conclusions and as she stared at the staff in the flames and heard the scream her hands were already reaching for the big fl kettle.
		Granny took the child in her arms and tried to comfort her; she wasn't sure how one went about it, but a distracted patting on the back and vague reassuring noises seemed to work, and the screams became wails and, eventually, sobs.
		Granny didn't mingle her thoughts with the bees very often, partly because insect minds were strange, alien things that tasted of tin, but mostly because she suspected that the Swarm was a good deal more intelligent than she was.

		Granny is a traditional witch; she doesn't hold with living in towns and selling love potions and other sundry matters.
		Granny Weatherwax, the town witch who delivered young Esk, knows that the girl must now learn to control the extraordinary powers she has been bequeathed before they start to control her.
		As Granny sees it, wizardry is high magic composed of science, "jommetry" and power, while witchcraft is a magic grounded in nature, herbs and "headology." Esk feels she can handle either type of magic and she turns wizardry on its ear as she proceeds to demonstrate what she can accomplish.

		she offered the same to granny but granny could see the cost (the elf queen would control you) and was not willing to pay that way, her way she only owe's herself and the witch who trained her (and that don't count).
		It may well be that Granny has had to work harder than some to gain her current mastery, but it is repeatedly emphasised throughout the novels that she is the most powerful and highly respected witch in the Ramtops.

	The Wee Free Men by Terry Pratchett
		The effect that one's elders can have on you and your life, even after they've gone, is presented with marvelous effect by a series of mini-flashbacks where Tiffany remembers a series of relevant episodes involving her Granny Aching, a woman who took a decidedly unique and effective approach to shepherding.
		The power of Granny Aching is quite evident, as is her similarity to Granny Weatherwax, Pratchett's more well-known witch, but at the same time she is different enough to not feel like a recycled character.
		There are also those who might say that Tiffany may be a representation of what Granny Weatherwax may have been like when she was younger, but she is most definitely her own person...it is difficult to believe that Granny Weatherwax would have ever taken some of the attitudes that Tiffany does as her character advances.

		Once upon a time there was a fairy godmother named Desiderata who had a good heart, a wise head, and poor planning skills--which unforunately left the Princess Emberella in the care of her other (not quite so good and wise) godmother when DEATH came for Desiderata.
		So now it's up to Magrat Garlick, Granny Weatherwax, and Nanny Ogg to hop on broomsticks and make for far-distant Genua to ensure the servant girl doesn't marry the Prince.
