I just heard the terrible news that writer Jamie Eyberg and his wife Ann have died in an accident where they were overcome by some kind of gas leak in a well at their home.
I never met Jamie in person, but I felt like I knew him well from our many conversations on Twitter. He was a very fine writer, and he will be missed by many, many people.
I had the privilege of publishing him once, his story "Winter Solstice" last year in M-Brane SF #8. As a small kind of memorial to Jamie, I am making that issue available for free download here, and it will remain so permanently.
I am not yet aware of any kind of fund or charity being set up for their children, but if hear of something, I will pass that information along also.
A memorial guestbook for Jamie is located at this link. Related Articles :

Heartbreaking. Absolutely heartbreaking.
Also, myself and the founder of the Library of the Living Dead Podcast/Press are arranging an auction to help benefit the children. There's more info on my website if you would like to pass it on, M-Brane.
Thanks,
