She was such an earnest advocate for writers and any artist pursuing their dreams. I'm sorry to hear about this.

Yep
So much vampire stuff wouldn't exist without her. She essentially invented our modern idea of what vampires are like. A ton of modern Vampire fiction is directly inspired by her work.

I mostly know her for opposing fanfiction to such a degree that she'd threaten lawsuits against both writers and platforms that involved themselves with fanfic of her properties. Places like fanfiction.net outright prohibited fanfiction of her IPs out of fear of litigation.

I have no opinion of her beyond that. If nothing else, I hope she didn't suffer - and I mean shit, Interview with the Vampire got a movie starring Tom Cruise. And even despite the copyright controversy, the fact is that she's an author with name recognition in her field, which for anyone is a big deal. I said it the first time I heard about her passing - what a life.

Condolences to her family, and RIP to her.

I feel these sentiments. I guess we outgrow things but I recall not being able to turn the pages fast enough as a young adult.

Supposedly you could walk up to her door in New Orleans and sometimes she'd let people in for tea. Maybe an urban legend though.

Sad news, although not very unexpected. She lived a long and productive life.

I should try to find my old books of hers..

Between her and Stevie Nicks, my entire fashion spectrum was fleshed out. I was really saddened when I heard the news. But I'm just thankful I got to live in a world where her stories got to influence so many things.

Legit sad news.

She was massively influential on vampire fiction and was just in general an awesome and supportive person of vast swathes of minorities.
