Series II houses drafts, typescripts, and other textual documents having to do with... Morressy's short fiction. A small number of items date back to Morressy's graduate years.

Series III is devoted to drafts, typescripts, and correspondence, as well as copies of Morressy's poetry, satire, and commentary during his early academic career. The bulk of the material is poetry.
