Memento Mori

Today in Albuquerque, there is a memorial service for Fred Saberhagen. He was the first author I ever wrote a fan letter to. In later years, I met him and saw him and his wonderful wife, Joan, at a few cons. I wish I could be there today to pay my respects.

A year ago today, one of my mentors, Charles L. Grant, died from a heart attack. I was at Girl Scout camp when I heard the news. Ironically, I am leaving in a few minutes for another Girl Scout camp.

Give someone you love a hug, and rejoice in life.
