RIP Brian Jacques. [link]

I read my first Redwall book in first grade (I'm 25 right now, so there's some context). That hit off a friendship that I kept for a good long while (thank god for Facebook that I can keep it going). I drew fanart. I wrote fanfiction before I knew what fanfiction WAS. I READ SO MUCH. I got my sister in to reading through this series as I read them aloud to her and my other sister. I read every single book until DigiPen got in the way.

I know I must've read other books before this, my mom will go on and on to people over how much I read when I was little. But the Redwall series is what I remember as being my first real love in the literary world. I wish I could do something other than a simple sketch. This author and this world deserve so much more from me than I can give right now.

Brian Jacques, thank you so much for the adventures.
