Get me to write fanfic just for you!
Please spread the word! You can do it easily by copying the first four paragraphs here to your own blog.
savetheproject is a fandom auction to benefit the The Virginia Avenue Project, a free afterschool arts and academics program. 100% of participating children graduate from high school. 95% go on to college. 98% are the first person in their family to go.
Due to budget cuts, unless we can raise $15,000 by mid-March, we will lose our centerpiece program, the One-on-Ones. In this program, professional actor/writers write a short play to act in with the kid they're paired with, rehearse it with them in a beautiful countryside summer camp, and then return to Los Angeles to put on a show. This program has been running continuously for 20 years - let's not lose it now!
Please help save the One-on-Ones by spreading the word, bidding at the auction, and/or offering something for people to bid on. Click on the "offered" or "seller" tags on the right-hand side of the page to see who's got an auction up and what people are offering. The local gift and treat boxes and baked goods look especially good...
I've been the stage manager for the Project for the last fifteen years, and have watched the kids gain confidence, grow up, and, in one case, make it to the White House!
My own offers, for original poetry, original fiction, fanfiction, a professional critique, a year of postcard-stories of Los Angeles, signed copies of my book, and a review of (almost) absolutely anything can be found here.
My enormous thanks go out to my co-mods coraa, rushthatspeaks, and co-mod AND site designer telophase.
