Topic: Amy S has passed away

I'm sorry to say that Amy passed away several weeks ago after a two-year battle with colon cancer. She was a terrific author, writing about five books simultaneously. More importantly, she was a wonderful friend and human being. Her Medieval/Fantasy Magic group, where many of us used to hang out, has fallen virtually silent without her. She will be missed. (We were waiting for her husband to post here, but he may not have access to this site. He posted a message on her Facebook account.)

I'm sorry to hear this. She was a great member who contributed much to the site. Maybe there is a way to memorialize her on the site? I'll have to  think about this.

I am so sorry to hear of this. I loved every one of her stories she posted here. She was such a big help guiding me through my first novel.

That's pretty damn sad to hear. Like me, she was in the medical field, worked in the ED. I thought she was a good reviewer. This is damn sad.

Ah, sad.  I hate to hear that.  I had no clue.  Thanks for letting us know.

I received word a couple weeks ago, but her husband said he wanted to send word to Sol himself.  It was an unusual case of the cancer, not detectable by the usual screens, which came up clean.

I met Amy in person a couple of times.  She was a force of nature, with clear priorities.

I am so sorry to hear this. While I didn't know Amy, I did see how active she was on this site and I know she leaves a big hole that won't be easily filled. I think a group memorializing her and others that have passed would be a good idea. It would be a place to pay respects and to share how these writers have touched our lives.
