RIP Ray Bradbury

A story of Ray Bradbury's that has always haunted me, and one that seems appropriate for the occasion, is "There Will Come Soft Rains" from The Martian Chronicles. Wikipedia links to a PDF version of the story.

His book on writing, Zen in the Art of Writing is also superb.

I read that one in 5th grade. That and "All Summer in a Day" will haunt me forever.
