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.

"Excuse me, Mr Barclay. Did you leave a ghost here? Did you forget to take it with your furniture?"

เรื่องผีเจ้าระเบียบ ไม่ใช่แนวสยองขวัญหรืออะไรเลย ตัวเรื่องสั้นมาก อ่านจบภายในครึ่งชั่วโมง (หรืออาจจะไวกว่านั้น 10 นาที -20 นาที ก็จบแล้วมั้ง) สนุกดีอ่านได้เพลินๆ แต่ไม่ได้รู้สึกประทับใจหรืออะไร

Päris vahva lugu "kummitusest", kes uues majas kõike korda seab.
