| - McCaffery was co-editor in chief of Fiction International from 1986-1998. He is briefly mentioned in Raymond Federman's novel The Twofold Vibration. Dubbed by "avant-prof" critic Lance Olsen as "Guru of the interview", he has published four volumes of interviews with contemporary authors, ranging from Raymond Carver to Barry Hannah to William T. Vollmann and Derek Pell. He has championed the work of many new, young writers such as Ben Marcus, Michael Hemmingson, Mark Z. Danielewski, and Mark Leyner. He created a theory of media/visual studies about the relation between memory, narrative, and sexuality called Avant-Porn. In 2000, Michael Hemmingson edited an anthology, WTF: The Avant-Porn Anthology (Soft Skull Press) for which McCaffery wrote the introduction.
