Eric Draven

[FreeThinker]

I received an email today from a friend who says that the writer Eric Draven has passed away. I am very sad. I have enjoyed reading his work on Nifty. I thought the other members might want to know.

I've heard that from someone else. Sad to hear.

Very sad to hear that, he was having so much fun with celebrity

I heard that as well. According to another author I talked with he got it from teh nifty chat room. From what he was told and he told me Eric died on his way to the hospital. He died of a brain anerisum (I hope I spelled that right).

 

This is a true sad tragedy and it hurts the all of us writers.

Just a thought...

 

Looking through his site, he mentions that he has re-written some of his stories and talks about going to ask nifty to update them.

 

I didn't see any updates on nifty.

 

Wouldn't it be the right thing to do to host his stories? As a postume gift to him? May his work stay alive after he's gone?

 

As I said! Just a thought!

I think that would be a good idea as well. It would be up to the Admin, amd the mods for final decision.

I have no problem hosting things, but it would be up to whomever those copyrights reverted to on his passing.

all you can do is send a email to him and cross your fingers and hope someone prefribly the person takeing over the copyrites gets it.
