Letter from the Editor-in-Chief
The Drexel University MFA class of 2026 is proud to bring you the latest volume of Paper Dragon. Submissions were voluminous following our call for the best-in-breed flash fiction and nonfiction. The result? A choice selection of thought-provoking writings that dive directly into the essence of circumstance.
This volume features works carefully selected among hundreds of submissions, as our editors sought the strongest offerings that delivered voice and theme. So too were the poetry and art selections chosen for their elevated and nuanced messaging. We are proud to present these to you.
Thank you to the artists, writers and poets who saw our publication as fertile ground to feature their works.
And thank you for reading Paper Dragon.
Ron Harris, Volume 10 Editor-in-Chief
Paper Dragon is the literary journal of Drexel University’s MFA in Creative Writing program. It is managed and edited by MFA students and published with generous help from the Drexel Publishing Group.
Through civic engagement, its mission is to provide a platform for the amplification of communities that have historically been underrepresented in literature. Paper Dragon will achieve this goal by showcasing high-quality creative work from authors and other artists in these communities.
