Thank you for writing this. I shared the link with a grief support group. People forget that the emotions they experience in grief are normal. This article truly expresses how a person feels when their loved one passes on.

I just don't stop in at SheWrites enough. Sorry I missed your warm note. Weren't you on the marketing chat today? Wild Ride! There are so many communities out there, but SheWrites is amazingly supportive.

Thanks for adding me as a friend. It occurred to me after I wrote the pen pal analogy that the other writers may have been too young tounderstand what I meant...I hope my meaning got through anyway.
I fought the roots of Evil, and won.

Two ones dear to me passed this month: my 99-year-old grandmother and a close friend of nearly 20 years. I am so thankful to have grown into a life that makes room for deep emotions. It is good to cry aloud and mourn the loss, praise their unique gifts, smile at their peculiar challenges, celebrate the depth of our bonds. And grow from the experience of their death.Oh, how dearly will I miss them. But like a skeleton bedecked with deep red roses, death shows us how to… Continue

Kamy Wicoff said… - Dear Christine,
Welcome to She Writes! We are so glad to have you here with us. I hope you find this a productive, supportive place to be. I saw on your blog that you were interested in the 15 minutes with an agent contest -- today at noon I will be interviewing literary agent Erin Hosier for a whole hour (!) and she will also take some questions. So tune if you get a chance. The cover for The Twins of Tessar is cool, btw.
Warm best,
Kamy
