As it was relayed to me by the editor, when the time came to try an adaptation of "Mouth" Harlan said "If we could get someone like Byrne, that would be great." The editor said "How about Byrne?" So he called, and on the basis of this being what I perceived as a pretty prestigious project, I said sure.Of course, then I discovered that fitting the story into the 12 pages I had been allotted would require a lot of rewriting. That was something I discussed with Harlan over the phone. His contribution was "No." Which is how the adaptation came to be more than 12 pages! I didn't know it wasn't in the trade. Don't know why that would be.
