I don't keep up with the forums the way I used to, so it was today as I was reading my weekly couple of chapters of Argon's excellent The Return of Thomas Grey that I learned of the passing of Wes Boyd.
Wes has been a fixture on SOL and online fiction for a lot longer than I have even been reading it. Authors like him have provided us with many hours of entertainment. Wes' obvious passion for his art was second to none.
There is a lot more to the Spearfish Lake tales than can be found on SOL, check out http://www.spearfishlaketales.com/ if you are so inclined.
Tonight, raise a glass, say a prayer, or just have a quiet moment in memory of Wes. He will be missed, but not forgotten.
