Not yet a year after Karl's death, I remain in mourning.
Any page I try to create now to celebrate Karl's memory is going to
be sad. I would much rather dwell on all the bright memories I have,
as would you, and as Karl wishes. In time, this page will evolve into just
such a portrait of Karl. Do give me time.
In the future I plan to publish (in book form) Karl's many and
various literary works, and other of his creations.
I have hundreds of photos of Karl, as he showed himself in his
different modes. Some of these will be of interest to his friends,
and they will be posted at a proper date. I wish to invite anyone who
knew Karl to be in touch with me and to contribute anything that he or she
feels would serve Karl's fame, by preserving an account of his actions
or words, or by adding a chip, so to speak, to the mosaic portrait of his
character. I certainly did not know him
completely; I didn't have
a monopoly of his affections, nor do I have now a monopoly of his memory.
Photos are welcome.
Please do write me,
Otto Steinmayer.
