I will miss her greatly. We were in a critique group together for a while. She was on the show a few times. Here's the podcast of the last show.

I am not familiar with her work. I just read the article form the LA Times. Heartbreaking. Makes you think of all the places you may still go, and the things you may still do,but somehow, for some trivila reason, don't...
May she travel to the most beautiful places, and do the most amazing things, now that she is free...
