You are not alone in your expressed feelings about the passing of Blake. He was the most kindhearted, genuine person I've probably ever met; and your description of him as a light could not have been more accurate. I've spent some one-on-one time with him as well as talked/emailed several times on various topics. To realize that will never happen again really saddens me. I'm so thankful for having known him, even though it was for such a short time. I have the privilege of being in the midst of a project that he helped me start and develop, so I've got something with which to fuel my writing fires. I'm sure that Blake will continue to light the way! He'll be missed and was one of the truly good ones. Beautiful words, Hope.

I saw him 2 years ago at a screenwriting conference and found his seminar to be immensely engaging and valuable. That came through again when I later read his book. I emailed a question through his blog along with a followup to his seminar and got a great response, along with encouragement, a few hours later. That blew me away; I struggle to get through my emails each day, including those from friends and family, and never expected response, let alone one full of support. A class act, and losing a light like his is tear-worthy. Agree about the loss. I saw him 2 years ago at a screenwriting conference and found his seminar to be immensely engaging and valuable.
