| 1 | Return | 1993 | Patrick Nielsen Hayden | N/A |
Patrick Nielsen Hayden’s short fiction output is small compared to his editorial work. Return, published in 1993, represents one of his few published stories. Hayden made his reputation as an editor rather than a writer, and his fiction appearances have been infrequent.
This piece is best understood as a sidebar to a career spent shaping the work of other writers. Readers interested in Hayden’s literary sensibility will find it more fully expressed in his anthology selections, where his editorial voice comes through in the stories he chose to collect and publish.
