Just wondering if letting fresh mushrooms sit on a paper towel in my closet dry them.. Not trying to get fancy and make something if they can just sit out...

Start off by fan drying them on maybe a kitchen pan or something...Or a screen. Roll them over once in a while. Just letting them sit on a paper towel in the closet won't do much for drying....
-------------------- The mushrooms, which grow only during the season of torrential rains, awaken the forces of creation and produce an experience of spiritual abundance, of an astonishing, inexhaustible constitution of forms that identifies them with fertility and makes them a mediation, a means of communion, of communication between man and the natural world of which they are the metaphysical flesh.

I set a fan on a low setting, and place the mushrooms ontop of the fan. But yes, id let them chill on there for a bit. Remember..... Cracker dry you want em.

Thanks, but does it need to be completely dry, I'm not weighing, just storing until Wednesday when I can eat them, thought I'd use a dry method until I can eat them, this is fine right?

Yes, make them cracker dry. As much as you possibly can with your fan and air drying. You will be good. Dry them, and save em.

They will be fine to eat wet or dry wednesday. Drying 100% is for storage purposes....

Drying mushrooms?
Dried mushrooms taste bad. Drying or dried mushrooms that are not being printed go here IMO

Fresh Mushrooms go here.
