So many of us are undone today by the news that Scott Timberg has died. Such a kind and generous man, and a dear friend. Others have spoken more eloquently than I can, about Scott's intellect, his passion for music and art and literature and language, his generosity and curiosity, his humanity. I'm grateful to each of them for finding the words to express the depth of this loss. I remember when the laughable economics of a freelance writer's life in LA sent Scott and his family to try living in Georgia, and how that move never really took. It wasn't too long before they were back. Los Angeles was Scott's true home, and we are all the poorer for his passing.

Please consider a donation to the Go Fund Me campaign to help Scott's family with immediate expenses, and to establish a college fund for his son.
