Gee, and I hardly got to know her, I only read one or two of her entries since joining AW many months back.
You sent me questions, trusted me to snark your work, made "crapometer" an industry term ...
You mean crapometer wasn't ALREADY an industry term??? For shame!

I'll miss her. I used to send jokes once in a while to lighten up her life. I should probably dig someone up and write a funny joke or humerus article for her.

Nah. I'm too sentimental.

Wow...I didn't read her very often but I always loved what she had to say.

She'll be missed...

Sad news for a Saturday morning! What a valuable resource her blog and her time have been! :(

This cannot be happening! :cry: That blog was the one thing that made the insanity of this business laughable.

Jeez, it's only 9am, but I think I need a drink (gin, maybe?) Cheers, Miss Snark. Thanks for everything. :e2drunk:

I'm sad too. I always felt she treated writers with respect, in her own way. Maybe she'll come back. When she took that break a few weeks ago, I think she came back a day or so before she said she would.

She'll continue to be on AW I bet. :)

She's on AW? I've never seen a post by her.

No, but several people have postulated it's Janet Reid.

Bah. I'm one of Janet's clients, and I got two of Miss Snark's inbox-cleaning form emails last go-round.

This is devastating. Just devastating. And it's too early for me to have my shot of schnapps on ice.
Of course it's not. What are you, a man or a mouse (or a woman)?

Sad sad sad. I didn't read her often, but she counted whenever I did.
