I was really saddened to hear this. I had just started getting into her work, reading the Parables Trilogy. She was an amazing author.

Oh no! I hadn't heard that until coming to your blog. How sad.
She gave so much to Science Fiction...she'll be terribly missed.

Her work was genuinely original and thought-provoking
in a way few things are. The world is a poorer place without her.

Thank you for a thoughtful and respectful obit.

I have had a hard time finding words to express how I feel about Octavia Butler's death and what her work meant.

Thank you for your well-written obituary.
