"<i>Author's Note to "Author's Notes"</i>: Most people who read my mini-collection in <i>Night Visions 4</i> heeded the listings on the table of contents and assumed I had contributed only six stories. Not so. The seventh was there all along, sneakily hiding in the form of a series of "author's notes," a were-fiction if you will. I wanted to depict the sort of persona many readers of my acquaintance seem to assume <i>must</i> belong to the typical horror writer. Or maybe, as one reviewer suggested, I've too blurred the line between author and creation. I don't know about you, but that scares the hell out of me. I haven't ritually sacrificed a small, cute animal in just ages." (postscript in <i>The Best Fantasy and Horror 1</i>).
