It is with deep sadness we announce that Carmen Webster Buxton passed away on March 31 after a long battle with cancer.
Carmen joined our ranks in 2019, and over the next two years she published Drifters, a YA sci-fi adventure with Snowy Wings Publishing, and Worlds Apart, an adult sci-fi romance set in the same universe as Drifters, with Crimson Fox Publishing. In between those two novels, she also published Bag of Tricks, a high fantasy adventure/romance, with Crimson Fox. Unfortunately, as her cancer advanced it took a toll on her ability to write. In 2022 she told me that she was unlikely to ever write again. I always held out hope that a miracle would occur and someday soon we’d be reading her next story. I am devastated that it was not to be.
Carmen was known and beloved by all the SWP/CFP authors for her great kindness and empathy. She was such a vital part of our group and she will be sorely missed and fondly remembered.
