Author Mark Bourne, 50, died Saturday February 25, 2012.
His short fiction appeared in Asimov’s Science Fiction, The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction, Realms of Fantasy, and numerous anthologies.
He was a teacher, scriptwriter, film reviewer for film.com, and producer of science shows for planetariums and museums.
He is survived by his wife, Elizabeth Lawhead Bourne.
Underachieving vampire Fortitude Scott and his kitsune friend Suzume Hollis are back in this sequel to GENERATION V. When Fort discovers his new, rent-paying roommate’s body he has to work fast to find the real killer, making unexpected alliances.
Lucienne Diver is both a literary agent and author of young adult and adult fiction (the Vamped series for Flux Books and the Latter-Day Olympians novels for Samhain). She’s also written short fiction for anthologies like Kicking It (coming from Roc)

I’m very sorry to hear that, and I can only offer my deepest condolences to his friends and family.
Upon seeing his name here, I realise I’ve heard of him (good things only) but I’ve never actually read his work. I’ll find something of his today and read it–that’s a promise. Any recommendations?
