We are posting this on behalf of Riverfolk Books, Avitue’s publisher. It is with a heavy heart that we announce Avitue’s passing. Avitue was a pillar in this community and a dear friend. We hate to be the ones to share such devastating news with you–his fans, friends and colleagues.

As some of you may have noticed, Avitue has been absent for a few months. This caused alarm because Avi was one of the most reliable and consistent authors in our community. Over the last few months, we exhausted every option at our disposal to find him, and unfortunately, we have now discovered that Avitue has passed.

Unauthorized duplication: this tale has been taken without consent. Report sightings.

This is a message from JP Weaver, his long time editor and friend. There's a bit more at the reddit link in the author notes.

I was happy to work with him and I'm sorry to announce this to you all.
