What happens when you unearth boxes of old letters, dog-eared essays, rebellious cartoons, and forgotten report cards from a dusty storage unit? You get SCRIBBLINGS FROM STORAGE, The Confessions of an English Major—a candid, witty, and deeply human memoir by Charles Francis Guittard, Baylor class of 1964.
Told through the artifacts of his so-called “permanent record,” this unconventional memoir traces Charles’s winding journey as an earnest but often insecure teenager stumbling reluctantly toward adulthood. Dating dramas, debate, bridge and ping-pong competitions, college decisions, fraternity bids, career anxiety, and spiritual curiosity all collide as he tries to figure out who he is—and what on earth he’s meant to do.
Whether he’s sun-lamping to improve his skin or studying The Art of Dating to prepare for when a girl answers the phone, Charles’s story is hilariously specific—and surprisingly universal. Somehow, despite his worrying confusion and anxiety, he makes it through.
How he did it, who helped, and what he’s made of it all—as an English major turned attorney turned author—is revealed behind the storage unit doors at Elysian Fields U-Store-It.complete with original illustrations by Amanda Colborn, SCRIBBLINGS FROM STORAGE invites you to sift through the carefully stored clutter of one man’s long road to self-understanding seven decades later—and maybe recognize a little of your own story inside.
