In case anyone is concerned: "Pratchett did not want his unpublished works to be completed by someone else and released. / The pieces of the hard drive will go on display in the Terry Pratchett: His World Exhibition at the museum on 16 September."

I remember hearing that Edgar Allen Poe willed his unpublished works to his worst critic. Then, I guess the critic had a change of heart and the good sense to get them published. Money was probably involved!
