Scope and Content

Manuscript and typescript drafts of fourteen unpublished novels and short stories by Gaye Hicyilmaz, some of which appear to have been intended for adults. The quantity of material for each story varies greatly - in some cases, the draft material is fragmentary and incomplete; in other cases, drafts exist of several different versions of the same story. Most of the drafts are undated. The series also contains a small quantity of rejection slips from various publishers, which document unsuccessful attempts by Hicyilmaz to have some of the stories in this series published.

Arrangement

The drafts are arranged in alphabetical order by title, with the rejection slips appearing at the end of the series.
