I'm getting ready to leave the country for a while, and I thought it prudent to put a note up here for anybody who might read this to say that my interest in suicide here is purely writerly and academic. There is no cause for alarm. Frankly, these guillotine suicides just stuck with me as I encountered them. The first one I read about was the David Moore thing a couple of years ago, and it really got me going.

So if you happen to see this and wonder if good old Steve is having some kind of problem, rest assured that this is just a writing project. Frankly, I am happier than I have ever been in my life.
