Non-fiction and fiction writings by Helen Balfour Morrison, with several pieces by Sybil Shearer related to Morrison’s life and career. Non-fiction writings include family and childhood memories along with genealogical information, memories of portrait subjects and photography projects, and thoughts on the arts. Titles describe some of the main topics in each piece, but they are not a comprehensive list of subjects covered in each part of writing. Although manuscript pages are often numbered, they are sometimes incomplete and may be out of order. Some writings are in Sybil Shearer’s handwriting, and it is unclear whether these are Sybil’s writings or if she was transcribing for Helen. Fictional writings are mostly short stories along with one poem. Morrison’s titles appear in quotes, and many stories have multiple drafts.
