striken

Holy Crap, I’m striken with sadness. Blogs are truly no way to receive sad news, as I have today. You just kind of skim past the words and see a name you recognize and stop to linger on the other words near them, completely not expecting to see the words farewell, or two dates within parentheses.

My sadness is due to the passing of Robert Holdstock, the man who made me love myth for what it inherently was–instead of the way teachers taught the Greek stories in school.

I must now go read Lavondyss again, excuse me…
