Taking Flight is a collection of short stories and essays that explore and celebrate the achievement of flight. From reimagined fairy tales to the perils and joys of modern travel, these stories reach upwards with both wonder and trepidation.
Our city of Dayton is the birthplace of flight. It is a place of imagination and innovation. Throughout its history the people of this city have taken dreams and ideas and turned them into reality through hard work and determination. In much the same way, our writers have turned their imagined worlds into stories that can share with others. Through edits and critiques, drafts and galleys, their stories have moved from the idle wondering to the words upon the page.
The Wright Writer's of Dayton are proud to share these with you in this volume of fancy flights.
