Being featured on the McSweeney's front page is a rare distinction, and in this regard, 826LA drop-in student Stephanie Gonzalez has already surpassed most, if not all, of her tutors. Her letter to president-elect Obama was posted last week along with those of two other students, one from 826 Seattle, and one from 826 Chicago.
It doesn't end there. Her letter, along with several others to Obama written by students at 826 chapters across the country, will be published by McSweeney's and 826 National on January 20, inauguration day, in Thanks and Have Fun Running the Country. We'd like to congratulate Stephanie, her fellow students in Echo Park and Venice, and all the young letter-writers in the book. We're so very proud of all of you.
