Envelope from Grace Paley. Unfortunately the letter was stolen when I handed it around during a talk in a women's lit class. Really.
A note left by on my door by my professor, Ralph Salisbury. I didn't have a phone at the time. When I went to see him at his office he told me he wanted me in his advanced fiction writing class. Very big moment.
A short story of Ralph's he sent to me after I graduated.
Ralph's letter of recommendation.
