Writer E. Lynn Harris died today at 54.
Before anybody was talking about the "down low" E. Lynn Harris pulled back the curtains, whether we wanted to see or not. I was not his biggest fan, but I'm saddened at the loss of a brave artist who offered his truth, his stories, his talent. Perhaps he still had more to tell us.

Interesting. I had no idea that this writer had passed on, but I will definitely be checking out google to learn more.

PS: I love the concept behind your blog...very original.
This is really sad news. He was courageous (I read somewhere that he started writing when he was going through a suicidal patch, and look what he produced...powerful work).
Indeed, it is sad. And even more so when we consider his age. The 50s seems like such a prime time in life--it's not a time for endings . . . .
