This is so sad. Laura cared about helping others, she was very creative, and she definitely played an important role here early on. I remember chatting with her about those early problems she was having with trolls, back when they first starting hounding other women like Stellabelle as well, before we even had downvotes I think. Somehow, Laura stayed strong and kept on writing. She left for a awhile, but came back and worked hard again, getting to a point where she was posting some wonderful material and this community seemed to embrace her, rewarding her posts well. We chatted once more and then I kind of lost track of her. And now this.

Laura, you were one of the strongest people I have ever talked with. You will be missed.
