What is the source for "Emily Short" being a pseudonym? I've followed Short's work for years and have participated to some extent in the community, but have never seen a reference to that effect. (Though it wouldn't entirely surprise me, as she is well-known for keeping her privacy.) — Adam Conover † 07:35, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Twisty Little Passages by Nick Montfort, page 218: "The most significant work in creating non-player characters that function in new and effective ways has been done by a classics Ph.D. candidate who uses the pseudonym Emily Short in the IF community." -Adjusting 09:14, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
