'Sleeper'
A place where we can talk about ita, miss ita, and share information about memorials. The hugging started over here in Natter.
Ginger, I have photos (crap photos, mostly, but there you go) physically. At a later point, let me know if you want those and how.
Allyson, I know this is "not about you", but it still comes at a really shitty time for you and yet requires your heart and soul to be injured and involved. Being there is both incredibly important and incredibly awful and hard for you. Tell us what's needed, and let those of us who need to help take it from you.
Perhaps collect her drabbles from GWW as well.
I still have this one bookmarked: § ita § "The Great Write Way" Jun 22, 2004 3:20:04 am PDT
That sounds good, javachick.
I should get some sleep myself. I'll set up someplace where people can upload higher-rez photos. I'd like to collect many of people's memories of ita in this thread, if that's okay.
My currently rather fuzzy plan is to put things on some non-public web pages so that y'all can check quotes and photo ids and attributions and generally help me catch anything stupid that I do.
I'm not quite sure how to include the io9 folks. I think we want to make sure that everyone in the book is comfortable with their quotes.
His response was "fucking glitter!" Remember her full on glee of using a sparkly Lush bathbomb before Krav and then getting glitter everywhere.
wonderful!
We could sell the book to whomever wants it and put the money toward a thing... Heifer project goats, migraine research... Some... thing.
I know I'd like to have one. I think a lot of people would. We could give some to her family and tell them about the rest.
Thanks, guys. Going to sleep now.
one more thing before bed...

Ginger, if there's anything I can do to help, please let me know.
The book could be a print on demand. Createspace is the least expensive if you want full color pictures, but wasn't ita boycotting Amazon. Or was that apple? At any rate there are tons of self-publish firms out there.
I find myself wanting to say something stupid, sexist, racist and wrong just so she'll come back and hand me my ass with Jamaican jerk sauce on it.
This made me gasp with laughter and then tear up again.
