A truly great author has left this world.. Margaret Mahy has died.
Here's me on the other side of the world, and how did I hear about the passing of one of NZ's loved writers? On Facebook!
It never fails to astound me how despite the fact that out there somewhere there been a personal tragedy for someone,that the world goes on.
I remember,r when my Dad died, looking at people round me carrying on as normal,wanting to shoot out to them don't you know that my world had just been knocked askew, that it will never be the same without that special man. The world came to a halt when Princess Dianna died and we shared out grief, but for just an ordinary man the circle of those who are affected was tiny.
