A Lesson in Navel Tactics, undated

This series comprises the bulk of the collection. The series includes bibliographies created by the author documenting his own works as well as his poetry. The majority of the material was most likely created between the early 1950s and the 1980s, The materials are made up of various drafts of Peterson's short stories. Because none of the drafts or completed manuscripts are dated, they are in no particular order within the folders themselves. The majority are typed, though some handwritten versions are included. Finally, also included are drafts, unpublished manuscripts, newspaper articles, and reviews of other authors' works.
