Death of a very fine author (he wrote Armor).

Well, guess this counts as finishing out The Rule of Three. Another person who was largely unknown, but worshiped by the circles that DID know.

Don't really know who he is, but at 59 he definitely died before his time, which is sad in its own way.

dying at this age really sucks...so young...

Ah man.. John William Steaksauce.. I loved his books.
But seriously, every death is a sad thing even if it doesn't sadden me.

Bloody hell, another one? I was going to go out tomorrow but I think I'll stay here where its safe!

I'm not familiar with him but he does seem to have been a very prolifically creative person.
