I was/am a big fan of Patricia Nell Warren having read all her books. In the 1980s I met her at a Gay Pride festival and after an interesting talk she agreed to meet me for dinner later on and it was really a fascinating evening talking (believe it or not I listened more than I talked!) and to my surprise I received the photo above about a week later. Sadly she died but her great books will be read forever! https://tinyurl.com/y27oazoc

Too bad we have lost another. Her books will live on as you said.

Very sad. A lot of people are going to miss her. The most surprising thing about her to me is that she worked so long for Reader's Digest. Probably the most conservative magazine I've ever read.

Hmm. Never heard of her. Might be worth taking a look depending on the genre she wrote in. I like horror mostly, but there have been many books outside of the horror genre I have read and loved such as The Lord of the Flies, The Needle by Ken Follet, many Louis L'Amour books, Charlotte's Web, The Grapes of Wrath, among others.
