Like Losing an Old Friend

I just read that Anne McCaffrey died. Oh, my heart. She's been a part of my life since I was 12 years old. I read and reread my Pern books until they fell apart. Ditto The Tower and the Hive and The Crystal Singer books and the Dinosaur Planet ones. For many years she was my favorite author and is still my second favorite. One of her co-written pieces led me to my current favorite author. I know it's silly, but I feel like I lost someone I knew. She was an amazing writer and she will be missed.
