I heard the sad news this morning on the radio that my favorite writer, Kurt Vonnegut, died yesterday at the age of 84.
God Bless You, Mr. Vonnegut! You were a major influence on me when I decided to pursue writing as a profession and not just as a hobby. I enjoyed reading your novels starting with Cat's Cradle back when I was in high school. I told you that when I met you in 1995 at the First Annual Writer's Festival at the Boston Center for Adult Education. It was great to shake your hand and tell you that I loved your lecture.
I read his last book, Man Without a Country, and enjoyed it.
RIP, Kurt!
Writers Praise Kurt Vonnegut!
