premise: Dave was n't just a genius writer - he was trying to help make new ones . Every time I read that his death was an apparent suicide , I jerk a little . I know what they mean , but to me there is nothing apparent about it . There is nothing apparent about why someone would do that . This is enough by itself to creep into the dark corners and reside . What may have caused Dave 's death ?
hypothesis: He passed away while writing .
