SUMMARY:Fight Writer’s Block Fest!
DESCRIPTION:Fight Writer’s Block Fest!\nThis spring, Uptown Stories is tackling one of the most debilitating and corrosive conditions affecting our youth today. \nThere is no warning. It can strike anyone, anytime. \nEvery 14 minutes and 37 seconds, Writer’s Block infects the imagination of a child, stealing word after word from the most prolific young writers of our time. \nPages remain blank, souls are tormented, and yes, snacks are just… uneaten. There’s a sudden absence of ideas where they used to flow freely, a sense of agonizing doubt where there used to be confidence. \nOn June 13, we’ll be gathering to stop Writer’s Block in its tracks. This dangerous affliction can only be defeated by showing up for our young writers, hearing their stories, and playing silly word games. You can be the hero in a blocked writer’s story.\nIf you’re unable to say “yes” to the Fest, we sympathize, and hope that you’ll make a donation to help fight the horror of Writer’s Block for all the young people in Upper Manhattan.\nWith your support, we can ensure every young writer finds the words they need to write the world.\n
