Of my many fictions, and fictional efforts, that had their origins in the Stoddard-Burnham saga, the preceding narrative (“Got a Light?” as it was titled when it appeared in Blue Parchment, a Seattle magazine) was the only one that featured Monty Burnham (Tony Kroll in the published story) as a protagonist and point-of-view character. While there was never a point of personal contact—an observed gesture, an overheard remark—that allowed me to conjure that character’s inner life (or to imagine an entire series of fictional episodes in which he played a prominent part), and while there’s little reason to believe “my” Monty Burnham bore any resemblance to the actual one, I’ve always felt that my early attempts to imagine my way into the real Raymond Stoddard’s mind (and only after the man’s death) inevitably led me to try to enter others. And disposed me to create fictions more concerned with the motives behind actions than with the actions themselves.
