A Word From JDC Burnhil

First and foremost, if you enjoyed the story you just read, "Jingle," if it brought you pleasure, I am deeply pleased as well. Very few things can compare to the reward of connecting with my human readers, and giving them something to lighten their day.

Please don't interpret the phrasing of the previous paragraph to imply that I am not human myself, am only in hiding among the human species, or any such thing. Please discourage the spreading of such absurd rumors, if you encounter them.

I also had the pleasure of discovering, late in the process of writing the story, what I'd actually been writing about the whole time. Since Superman's first appearance on the cover of "Action Comics #1" lifting a car over his head, the stock in trade of superhero stories has been to stir our sense of wonder. But too often, we fail to see, in our real lives, the things around us, and in us, which equally deserve our wonder. They are so familiar and real, we forget they can also be super. Sometimes, all it takes to be someone's hero is just to step forward and do what you can with what you have.

If all goes well, then by the time you read this, I will have an author website at jdcburnhil.com, and be reachable at [email protected] where I would love to receive email from readers. If for some reason that doesn't go as planned, my Amazon page will direct you to whatever it is that I do have arranged.

Even though my home is indeed in New England, the rumors that I can also be reached by putting a letter in a bottle and leaving it in a certain lonely New England churchyard on a night when the fog coils thick, and pretending you don't see the tentacle that creeps through the gloom and snatches the bottle, dragging it away to some indescribable, dimly lit lair for perusal by some THING that lurks in the Earth but is NOT OF IT—well, those rumors are silly. I've never even been to that churchyard. Aboveground, at least. Please don't pay attention to these absurd rumors.
