In memory of the fabulous MLM

I wish I could pay my final respects to MLM in person, but not being able to beam myself anywhere I need another way to do it.

My idea for anybody who has the same problem is a read together.
On November 7th at 11 pm GMT+1 (Berlin, Germany) we could all read this story she has written, Wire
And meet afterwards here at lj in this community to honor her.

To see what time this is for you check out this site.
The story is around 600 words, so everyone could join in, because five minutes can be snatched anywhere.

I never met MLM in person, but I am awed by her strength and her way of looking at life.
And I am thankful to her for sharing all that and the wonderful insights on the Lads´ lives, too.

Good idea - well done!

I've been speaking to serantan about this today. Mead's husband wants to make one final post on Mead's journal and then serantan will contact LJ about conferring memorial status on the account.

I'm so pleased that we will still have a little bit of Mead here on LJ with us.

I'll try to be there too

The time should be the same for me as I'm in France. I guess it's the time for her burial? Anyway, paying homage to her is a very nice idea. I'll leave a note to myself on my computer desk so I won't miss the meeting. I can't remember exactly when and why, but I know I've been briefly in contact with her and I always enjoyed her stories.
My heart goes out to her family and close friends in this very painful moment.

Nice idea, shall try to get here.

RE: I'll try to be there too

[milomaus.livejournal.com]

Yes, the time is the same for you.
And no, it's not her burial, it's just a time I hoped lot's of people could attend.

Thank you for joining in.

[milomaus.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[milomaus.livejournal.com]

Hopefully you can make it!

Great idea - I'm sure mead would love it. I will do my best to join in.

[lukadreaming.livejournal.com]

Lovely idea!

[sagittas.livejournal.com]

Thanks for thinking of this, it's a nice idea. I'll try my best to join. We should have the same local time as you, here in Italy.

[msmoat.livejournal.com]

Oh, that is wonderful news. Thank you.

[golden-bastet.livejournal.com]

Count me in. I wanted - want - to do *something*, because she was an awesome person.

Thank you for thinking of this.

[sc-fossil.livejournal.com]

Oh good. I was worried it might disappear! I wasn't sure what to do.

[sc-fossil.livejournal.com]

I will also try to join in if I can. Thanks for suggesting this! I only met Mead twice but we had such fun both times.

[minori-k.livejournal.com]

Yes, I'm in too. And this is a very good idea! I was able to meet her in person luckily back in Sep. 2013. That was a fantastic experience as I live here Japan far from UK and we could manage to meet up during my trip in London then... If only I was able to meet her again in this May...

[milomaus.livejournal.com]

I do hope she does!
You'll make it!

Thank you! Moth mentioned it to me in a DW comment, but I haven't had time to reply. Just glad to hear.

And Milomaus, it sounds like a plan! I think that means Eastern time in Australia is 9 AM, so quite do-able.

Like you, I wish I had met Mead in RL, but that wasn't to be.

This is a great idea. I may not be able to be there for the initial comments, but I'll check in when I can.

[milomaus.livejournal.com]

So happy that you will join everybody!

[milomaus.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[milomaus.livejournal.com]

Yep, Italy is in the same timezone!
So happy you'll try to join!

[milomaus.livejournal.com]

Thank you for joining!

[milomaus.livejournal.com]

Hopefully you'll be able to join!
You're welcome!

[milomaus.livejournal.com]

Hurray! It will be in the middle of the night for you, right?
Glad you are still willing to join!

[milomaus.livejournal.com]

I'm glad you like it.
And the important part is to read the story at the same time, checking in will be a wonderful addition.
