Some Days You Get the Bear is listed in various bibliographical sources as having first appeared in Penthouse, but I don't believe it did. The story SOLD to Penthouse, and sat in inventory forever, until my agent asked for its return. Then in 1993 It became the title story in my third collection of short fiction, published by William Morrow, and later turned up in my omnibus collection of short fiction, Enough Rope. It's not a crime story, nor is it erotic, so that makes it not what you might expect from me. If I were to categorize it—and I'd just as soon not—I'd probably call it a story of light urban romance. It's a story about a grown man who sleeps with a teddy bear. Nothing terribly neurotic about him. He just gets a better night's sleep when his bear's in his bed with him, that's all. But it does complicate things... Anthologies & Short Stories Short Stories
