Terry Pratchett is still writing Discworld books, and has 39 books (with another one coming out this year.)

And to be honest, Pratchett has evolved his writing skills -- The color of Magic is not his best (although still good.)

P.S. I agree that this whole "People long ago (from at least ten years ago) didn't know how to write" thing is a little ridiculous.

If nothing else, even you @Owna must agree that there can and will be exceptions, as with everything.
