Kage Baker Needs Our Help

Kage Baker has been one of my favourite sf and fantasy writers of the last batch of years, ever since her first novel, In the Garden of Iden, came out and launched the Company series of works. The Company stories are wonderful, and in her humorous stories she has one of the best senses of timing that I've seen in fiction.

In the last couple of days, she’s finally made public her battle with cancer, which is in a critical stage. I'm not going to write all of the information here, but below are the snail mail and email addresses at which you can reach her.

I've met her a couple of times and she’s a great person, a great writer. Drop her a line, please. She could do with something silly, something fun, something that shows you care.

Emails of support: materkb@gmail.com

Letters, notes, cards and anything else you can think of can be sent to her home:

Kage Baker
331 Stimson, Apt. B,
Pismo Beach CA 93449

Thanks for your time, folks.
