ABOUT #agoodtimetowrite
Writing is an act of joy and freedom. Through our pencils, pens, markers, and keyboards, we can conjure universes, build understanding and empathy, and catalyze change. As our communities take to their homes to mitigate the further spread of COVID-19, 826 National is bringing together young writers and some of their fiercest champions online. We believe now is a good time to write, so we’re providing new writing opportunities and encouragement through 826 Digital and beyond. Let’s take care, stay safe, and write on.
