Lori | 746 comments These are my highlights from the Writing the Uncanny essay collection edited by Dan Coxon. Will these appear in the Quotes section of his author profile? If so, the correct authors should be:

"As we are well aware . . . " to "If we are attempting the write the uncanny . . ." Lucie McKnight Hardy

"The house gradually became . . . " Michèle Roberts

"I don't have to reach for a punchline . . ." to "A short story is more interested . . ." Robert Shearman

"Of increasing importance . . ." to "The deserted street . . ." Gary Budden

"Fairy tales don't have . . ." to "When bringing a fairy tale . . ." Claire Dean

"affectionate nostalgia" Jeremy Dyson

"Even visible ghosts . . ." Jenn Ashworth

"Distance, time, sound . . ." to "Ghost stories rely . . ." Catriona Ward

"But ghosts are different . . ." Rowan Hisayo Buchanan

The remaining are Timothy J. Jarvis.

Emily | 17674 comments Unfortunately it doesn't look like highlights appear in the quote section of either the book or author. The first one you list here was in the system as a quote, so I corrected the author.
I suppose this means you can add the highlights as quotes with the correct authors if you like.
