added a status update
Hello, this is actually Joanna's husband Jeremiah Chaplin. I am writing with sorrow to say that Joanna finally passed away after her long battle with cancer. Goodreads had become a major part of her life and I wanted to at least acknowledge her passing here for those who she was connected to and not just have the account suddenly stop. Thank you all for giving her a community she could embrace even to the end.

Thank you for letting us know. I'm honored to have known her, even if only through the internet.

We're sorry to hear that. She was a great part of the Sword & Laser community, and she'll be missed.

Rest peacefully, Joanna.
I'm very sorry for your loss. She was an absolutely wonderful person and we were all privileged to know her, even virtually.Do you have a charity or anything people can donate to in her memory?
Jeremiah, thank you for sharing. I am so sorry for your loss. Joanna will be greatly missed; I always enjoyed her viewpoints on books.

They are rather small since it is a fairly rare form of cancer and could definitely use all the help they can get.
My condolences to you and your family. She will be missed here. Even though we never met, I appreciated her contributions here. Thank you for taking the time and consideration to let us know.
I am so very sorry for your loss, Jeremiah and to your family. I always enjoyed her thoughts on books, and she was a notable voice in our rather large community.
