Michael Jackson Dead

Michael Jackson died at the age of 50 yesterday, the cause of death was cardiac arrest. I was in shock when I found it out on Facebook thru a friend about this tragic loss of a great artist.

Michael Jackson contributed greatly in the music industry and entertainment. His influence spread throughout the world, transforming many areas of music, particularly influencing, Dance, Hip Hop and R&B. Being dubbed as the “King of Pop”, Michael Jackson showed the world his concert styles entertaining huge number of crowds. Doing the “Robot Dance” and “Moon Walk”. His audiences and fans come in many ages, from teen to adults; even my mother liked his songs. My personal favorite was “I’ll be there” a 70’s hit when Michael Jackson was still with the band called Jackson 5 together with his brother. And now was revised by Mariah Carey and American R&B singer Trey Lorenz. Read more about Michael Jackson Dead

I expected rejection or at least derision – it’s a common reaction in Real Life, believe me – which is why I’m relieved when she said she didn’t mind, even going as far as reading some of the stuff I’ve written. She tries to write her own fanfic when she has the time, and I encourage her time and again to do so to hone her skills in characterization and writing style.

And because I enjoy reading her fiction too.
