Sorrow

Dearest faithful readers, I wanted to let you know that I just heard news of one of my closest friends in the world's passing away. I do not know if the family has announced this person's death yet--this person was very much a prominent figure in our literary scene here in Santa Cruz--and I am in utter shock and even denial myself, so I will not say who this person is just yet, until the family announces it.

As soon as I feel I am able, I will post about it, but it many take me a day or two. I have been dreading this day for as long as I have known this person, one of those friends one simply can't imagine losing.
