R.I.P. (Ann) A.C. Crispin
Sad to hear that author A.C. Crispin passed away from cancer earlier today.


RIP Ann Crispin, Who Fought for the Writers
Quote:
You owe A.C. Crispin a huge debt, whether you know it or not. As an author, she helped carve a space for women writing science fiction. She helped prove media tie-in novels could be great books in their own right. And she fought for writers to get treated fairly, with the indispensible site Writer Beware.

Sadly, Crispin died of cancer earlier today.

EDIT: A nice write up at Tor.com
