So....

First of all, just found out that Lloyd Alexander died. That makes me sad. Very sad.

On the bright side, I'm rereading the Tamora Pierce books. They amuse me pathetically. So I move on to my new series, "Dragon delaSangre". It's pretty good, actually.

I want to join desperatefans as Firekeeper, but she's sort of obscure. *whine* I'll probably do it anyway.

Finally, I am so morbidly bored right now that I am actually seriously considering reading the Holy Bible for FUN.

Sheesh.

...Lloyd Alexander died?

Oh, Gods. That's awful. And I didn't know till just now.

Young Adult fiction has lost one of its most talented writers.

I know.

It sucks. I only found out from reading the latest post in the anti-Eragon community I'm part of. *wince*

I grew up with him - it's weird to hear that he's not going to be writing any more wonderful stories. *sigh*

He DID? That's terrible! I can't believe I didn't know that until now! :(

I know! And I just learned! I feel like I should know these things...

uhh..*feels out of the loop* gawd I'm an idiot...

who's Lloyd Alexander?

[minviendha.livejournal.com]

He's a young adult fantasy author - wrote the Prydain Chronicles, Time Cat, the Iron Ring, and a bunch of other really good stuff.

Awwww, God, I worshipped Time Cat when I was younger! It was the first book by him that I ever read... :(

Now, we all know that I'm not exactly fantasy-girl, but that's still so sad!!! He's such an iconic author. It's sad whenever anyone iconic dies- it feels like such a loss.
