About the author

Various is the correct author for any book with multiple unknown authors, and is acceptable for books with multiple known authors, especially if not all are known or the list is very long (over 50).

If an editor is known, however, Various is not necessary. List the name of the editor as the primary author (with role "editor"). Contributing authors' names follow it.

Note: WorldCat is an excellent resource for finding author information and contents of anthologies.

13: The Chase - Top Suspense Group

That last is a round robin short story where each author wrote 250 words, then passed it to the next. That one would take off from there and send it on. It passed through every hand twice before the tale reached a satisfactory conclusion.

Available as as e-book from Kindle/Amazon. Worth a look .

Not a bad story in the bunch.
