Pat Guiver, author of the Delilah Doolittle pet detective series that began in the late ’90s, died a few days ago. She was from Surrey, England, and had a dry sense of humor and a great laugh. I was in a critique group (The Fictionaires) with her until a few years ago when I left the group. She was a wonderful critic and writer. I hadn’t seen Pat in quite some time, but already I miss her presence on this earth. Here’s a link to her obituary.
