Writing Description:
Correspondence between Sherry (Porter) White and Mark Fletcher (pseudonym). Sherry (living in Texas) and Mark (living in California) became pen friends through The Letter Exchange, a magazine for letter writers. Sherry was 42 and single at the time of these writings; Mark was 37, a technical writer by profession, and also single. Mark’s writing style—formal, gentlemanly, and a bit intellectual—often shows signs of the frustrated novelist. Sherry’s style—just as circumspect, but more breezy and playful—gives evidence of the librarian as generalist and knowledge-seeker. The untitled collection contains an introduction written by Sherry.
