I received this news as well. I’m devastated. Rachel has been a fixture—and a legend—in the literary world for most of my adult life, and I’m 60.

More than that, she has been a dear friend for the last 15 years, and I really don’t know how to think of the world without her in it.

I would give anything to see you and speak with you and hug you one more time, Rachel.

May you pass peacefully, my dear friend. I miss you already.

A Tumblr post from Neil Gaiman from 10:24 AM, March 12, 2023: My friend the brilliant author Rachel Pollack is coming to the end of her life. She won the Nebula, World Fantasy and Arthur C Clarke awards. She is a world renowned expert on Tarot, and her books on Tarot are still regarded as the gold standard. She created the first trans superhero, in Doom Patrol in '93. I will miss her very much when she goes. I am writing this at the request of her wife Zoe, to let her friends know that the end is soon, and to let the obituarists know too. (I saw her yesterday and hope to see her again before the end.)
