One of my favorite fanfic authors, and one that I'd hoped to see publish a novel, died January 17.

I recall reading some fics of his way back. The FFML post about it mentioned he apparently took his own life. Sad news in any regard :(

Brian was a good writer, and if he was depressed it certainly didn't show in the fics I read. Sorry to hear this.

A lot of his newer one shots were more tragic type based, but that was the only indicator I can think of. But since most of those were in the TMOHS universe, and some were from Kyon's standpoint...

He left a lot of good stories unfinished, but they are still good reads, even some of his older works. Like Process of Elimination, or Diamonds in the Rough, or even the lesser known Rursus Iterum.

His newer stuff included mostly The Meloncholy of Haruhi Suzimiya. and included Kyon Big Damn Hero.

Marked him in our catalog: two of his fics are partially translated to Russian. I enjoyed PoE at the time :(

I'm torn: on one hand, it's sad and very understandable, on the other hand... It's so stupid. :(

P.S. Unfortunately, "R.I.P." in this case is incompatible with Christianity (maybe with other major beliefs too). No way. :(

...Wait. He was the one who wrote Process of Elimination?

Aw, man. Aw, man. :(
