Today I've received news of the illness of Tor Books editor David Hartwell, who is very ill and not expected to recover. I've never sat and had a chat with him, but he did often visit Can-Con, and seemed a genuinely lovely human being.
And I have friends struggling with the long, slow death of a parent with a terminal diagnosis.
January can go die in a fire.
I'm taking my frustrated self off to do work.
Ciao.
