In 2022, Dralyuk published his debut poetry collection My Hollywood and Other Poems with Paul Dry Books.[6][7] It was reviewed positively by Anahid Neressian in The New York Review of Books, who remarked that an "air of upbeat sorrow permeates My Hollywood. It’s an émigré mood, defined by the conviction that things could always be worse."[8]
