in memoriam.

Andre Norton. 1912-2005.

a consistenently good, intelligent, imaginative writer, an author not too proud to collaborate and help. one of the first sf/f authors i ever read, along with tolkein and heinlein, so i suppose it's partly her fault (along with my dad, who gave them all to me :)

i would say "she will be missed," but she's written so much that i haven't read yet, even if there's something of a sadness to knowing that she won't write anymore. so instead, i will say that i hope her influence lives on.
