In December I was in London with Liz Corbett and Catherine Padmore, and Jesse Blackadder messaged me to say the doctors had figured out why she wasn’t feeling well. Six months later she’s gone, and Liz has gone, the world’s in flames or in lockdown. Hold the ones you love. Close.

We’re deeply saddened to learn of the passing of author and journalist Dr Jesse Blackadder. One year ago today we published Jesse’s stunning essay which sought to put words to a transformative summer at Antarctica’s Mawson Station. Vale

The sun set on the beautiful life of
@jesseblackadder
yesterday. Jesse lived fiercely and touched thousands with her words, and her commitment to helping kids write. If your child’s sat in a StoryBoard teepee, then your life has been touched by Jesse too. We’ll miss you Jess xx

Last year I was privileged to see Jesse Blackadder speak on an author panel at a festival. She was insightful, warm, funny, passionate, and so, so interesting. I’m so saddened to hear of her passing, and my heart goes out to the many people who will be feeling her loss.

I am deeply saddened to learn that Jesse Blackadder passed away last night. Jesse was an invited guest at the 2012 NSW Readers’ Advisory seminar. She was always gracious and shared her research and writing with many librarians.
