Minneapolis Disaster Check-In

If you've seen the news about the Minneapolis bridge collapse and are worried about any of your SF/F friends, there's a check in started here:

I noticed entries from Kelly McCullough, Naomi Kritzer, and myself (Lyda Morehouse/Tate Hallaway). I just checked Eleanor's blog, and it seems she and Patrick are okay as well. Looks like I can now add Doug Hulick to the safe list.

If the remaining Wyrdsmiths would please post a note at the Mnstf site to let us all know you're okay, it would be much appreciated. (Oh, and if you don't have an LJ account the person managing the site has kindly offered her email address laurel@tvpicks.net for check-ins.)

Update (8/2/07): It seems we've heard from the rest of the wyrdsmits: Bill Henry, Sean M. Murphy, and Rosalind Nelson via e-mail. I got a call this morning from Harry LeBlanc in California and he sends his love and well wishes to all.

Thanks for this. I've sat here in Kentucky wondering about all of you - and a handful of other people. I've got a bunch of friends up that way...

You're welcome. I should be working on revisions, but I keep checking in to see who else has said they're okay.

Douglas Hulick said...

Thanks, Lyda. I hadn't even thought about checking in here.

Bill e-mailed. He's fine.

Has anyone heard from Rosalind?

I'm down in southwest MN. No bridges like that around here. O.o

Kelly McCullough said...

Rosalind's okay.

Oh, and Sean too, as well as the rest of our extended family.

I just heard from Scott Lynch. He's okay, too. I can breathe now...

I've been thinkin' of you guys. I'm glad to hear you're all okay, and I hope your friends/loved ones are, too.

I'm very glad to hear that you are all safe. I hope the same is true for all of your friends and family, and all of theirs.
