I missed this because it was only posted on Facebook, but CJ Cherry, one of my favorite writers and a multi-award-winning sci-fi and fantasy writer, has announced her retirement from writing, pointing to multiple health issues in recent years and her age.

Cherryh is an incredible writer with a body of work that speaks for itself. It's a shame she doesn't get much recognition as one of the greats of genre fiction these days. I hope she enjoys her retirement.

@joshsjunkdrawer I have more of her works than any other authour... I certainly can't complain about lack of content! But I hate to know there won't be more :-(
@joshsjunkdrawer Glad to hear she's taking care of herself! She's the only writer I've ever reached out to, to say how much I appreciate her writing.
