Diana Wynne Jones passed away on 26th March.
I have been writing her a letter in my mind since forever and a few days ago I had a moment whe I thought I´d better hurry.
I wanted to tell her about how I discovered her book Eight Days of Luke in an Alaskan library, fell in love with it and copied it (and needed change for the copying machine all the time), how I watched Howl´s Moving Castle in Antwerp in Japanese with Dutch and French subtitles and how now I am reading Enchanted Glass in the Netherlands now...
How her books became a medicine against homesickness for me...
I will miss her.
Here is a tribute by Neil Gaiman.
