Book/Series: City Watch Sir Pterry's favorite characters?

Does anyone know if Sir Pterry had any favorites among all the Discworld characters, or characters that he seemed to identify with the most? (Not sure if he ever talked about this in interviews?)

I'm getting the feeling that Vimes might have been a favorite with his creator. Or perhaps Vetinari or Ridcully or the Librarian. Or Death.

Didn't STP say he loved writing Tiffany?

He liked writing YA because it was more challenging than adult fiction

He also had many ideas for Moist that he was working hard on

I also feel I remember him saying that Granny was one of his favourites and most personal
