  • "Manuscripts, galley proofs, research materials, notes, correspondence, clippings, photographs, and other printed material highlight Shelby Hearon's writing career. The bulk of the collection consists of research notes, manuscript drafts, and promotional files pertaining to Hearon's books published before 1995. All of her novels between 1968 and 1994, including Armadillo in the Grass, Hug Dancing, Owning Jolene, and Painted Dresses, are represented in this collection. Some titles are more complete than others, and follow the entire creative process from initial notes and drafts to publication and reception. Also found are many of Hearon's short stories, articles, book reviews, as well as manuscript material from Barbara Jordan's co-authored autobiography. The collection also contains Hearon's working files, which trace her literary career as a lecturer, book reviewer, and short story writer. Additionally, Hearon's fellowship grants, speaking tours, and literary friendships are documented in the working files. A highlight of both series is the correspondence between Hearon and her editors Sally Arteseros, Judith Jones, and Thomas A. Stewart, and long-time agent Wendy Weil."
