I am devistated to learn that my favorite writer, Carol Shields, passed away last night of breast cancer in Victoria, BC. There are tears in my eyes, a lump in my throat and a great deal of sadness in my heart. She was a brilliant woman, someone who influenced my life and my writing. I find some irony in the knowledge that her passing fell on the same evening that I was able to listen in on a few amazing moments of Duran's Costa Mesa show. These are two signifigant moments for me.
Carol was amazing. Please hold her in your hearts and perhaps pick up a book of hers to read. She will be missed but her words will carry on with her spirit for many years to come.
Respectfully,
Nicole

One out of two isn't bad. And I thought Stone Diaries was one you listed. Now to read them!
