kathleen_daileyI don't really know what to say. I learned today that Rabble Rouser died in 2018. That news, coming on the heels of the news of JK's death, is shocking and profoundly saddening. RR, along with JK, was a fundamental part of the TrekFest and ASCEM crowd, and I can't begin to estimate how deep her influence, like JK's, was on my writing and thinking.
She was the author of many stories, but the one that has stayed with me all these years is Sympathy for the Devil. Her characterization of T'Pring was, for its time, astonishingly and courageously radical. If I ever finish the T'Pring WIP (now in its 20th year of non-completion), it will be entirely dedicated to RR's memory.
This litany of losses can stop right now, please, goddesses of Fate, TYVM.
