Scope and Contents

This series documents Molly Peacock's writing, editing, and publication work. The series includes Peacock's poetry, creative non-fiction, fiction, and play and operetta scripts. Because Peacock kept files related to publication with drafts, this series includes records on writing projects from inception to publication and promotion. The series also includes files related to Peacock's work editing anthologies and journals.

Files incude research files, notebooks, drafts, edits, proofs, publication correspondence, publicity files, book tour planning records, financial documents, and reviews.

There is a small amount of Peacock's writing that can be found in the Literary activities series, namely reviews and blurbs Peacock wrote for other people's books.
