another terrible loss
i just got an email from my friend nifa and i am sad to report the passing of author Octavia Butler.
She was best known for her amazing science fiction writing that really engaged race and gender.
She won a million writing awards and really there was no one else like her.
Please light a candle or say a prayer for her family.
For more information on her, you can go to:

I stumbled across some of her books when I was in college and I am really glad of it. I still think of her often based on that.
