Description

Handwritten notebooks, most entirely filled with writing, including extended pieces and some titled works of poetry and prose that can be cross-referenced in Series 1. Notebooks also contain notes ranging from reading observations to rental housing, to baseball statistics. Some notebooks include check marks next to pieces, suggesting their eventual transformation into typescripts and ultimately published work.
