I was notified by the DWJ mailing list this morning that Dianna Wynne Jones "died in her sleep last night at about five (GMT). She was in StPeter's Hospice in Bristol, after a short final illness, and her painwas being controlled so that she was no longer hurting all the time."
She's my favorite YA author and one of the main reasons I've continued to read and write YA my whole life. It wasn't unexpected because she's been very ill, but it's still indescribably sad to me and I thought others here might appreciate knowing.
