Greetings readers, and welcome to the sixth volume of Elephant Tree.
Before you devour the pages of this eclectic compilation of work done by
Chapman students, we would like to thank you, the reader, for your interest
in one of the most important crafts we have as an American nation. This little
book in your hands represents a passion for creative writing, an art form that
we continue to make immortal by publishing these kinds of literary treats.
With ink and paper, anything is possible.

Of course, we could not have created this journal without the help of many
individuals. We would like to thank all of the students who submitted work
to this year’s issue of Elephant Tree. Without you, this collection of stories and
poems would not exist. Many thanks as well to the Office of Publications
& Creative Services. Lastly, we must thank our faculty advisor, Professor
Logan Esdale, for the extraordinary wisdom and insight he has brought to
Chapman University.
Our goal in this project was to provide a
representation of the many talented
and creative individuals here at Chapman. This issue of Elephant Tree features
poems and stories on a wide range of topics, including the adventures of a
murderess consumed by envy and zealous piousness, re-castings of familiar
fairy tales, a story about feeding a clan of hungry birds, and many more.
We hope you enjoy this year’s edition of Elephant Tree as much as we have
enjoyed putting it together. Happy reading!
