I have been out of town and out of touch. I didn’t realize she had passed. One of my favorite authors. Wonderful quote!

Stunning. Shame it takes a death to make me get round to reading an author. Not good not good at all.

Don’t feel bad. I’m the same way for some authors. It’s our way of keeping their work alive!

I’ve caught her work in pieces but really need to sit with a book and learn. She was a wise woman.
