I should also say that in fiction I despise endnotes and when reformatting a book from Project Gutenberg I convert them into a parenthetical remark either after the sentence or at the end of the paragraph. If it's really short it may go where the endnote number appears in the sentence.

Even in nonfiction I find endnotes tiresome. They're ok for bibliographic references in scholarly stuff.
