Tom Clancy has passed away. I was never a Clancy fan, but his name, to me, was as recognisable as Stephen King.
This got me thinking about who else has recently died.
I am really surprised by how many well known authors have passed away in 2013.
These are the authors I know of that are reading in the big library in the sky.
Tom Clancy
Elmore Leonard
Richard Matheson
Rick Hautala
James Herbert
… and to add 2012 to that list …
Ray Bradbury
Paul Haines
Bryce Courtenay
If I have missed any names off this list (and I’m sure that I have) please feel free to add them in the comments section.
There are some BIG names in this list and they will be missed by many readers around the globe.
Words have power.
The creators of these words may be gone, but their legacy and dreams live on.
Here is a couple more that I have found on my snooping around
Harper Lee
P D James
Thanks, Sharon
