We missed you before we know you'd left this mortal coil. I loved your stories, your characters and always looked forward to more.
I also got to converse with you and found a great person and author was behind the stories. One from my own neck of the woods.
The blog post announcing his passing talked of his final works. I would love to read them and I'd love to see someone take on his universe and move it forward if possible.
Authors like ProfessorC, Greg Younger, Reluctant_Sir, Writer Mick, MichaelLoucks or maybe Jay if they where so inclined would make excellent sheppards for this.
I would also like to call for Xalir's name to be added to this year's lifetime achievement award.
