Ugh, livejournal, quit eating my comments.

Yeah, I think we can draw a distinction between using personal experience/some personal traits (1) in a story and essentially plopping yourself down in the middle of a story and calling yourself "Scully".

(1) And I even think using something of yourself is essential to make a good story--otherwise the characters would be feelingless cardboard cutouts.

I was thinking the ending was very reminiscent of "all things", but when I checked Gossamer, Dance Card was published the year before.
