Prior to writing about the Discworld, Terry Pratchett wrote about the worlds of Strata, and Carpet People and later the Bromeliad Trilogy (Truckers, Diggers, Wings).
These settings have not seen as much love and attention as the Discworld, but has anyone extended these universes into other novels or stories?
I'm thinking in a similar way that the Cthulhu mythos has grown over the years.
One reason the Cthulhu mythos has grown so much is that Lovecraft permitted -- nay, actively encouraged -- other writers to have fun in his playground. His estate follows the same policy. Pratchett hasn't done anything like that.
[...] has anyone extended these universes into other novels or stories?
No, I don't think so.
Of course, there might be some fanfic out there somewhere, but I seriously doubt it. Most of the fandom concentrates on what's by far the largest part of Pratchett's output: Discworld.
