“Being born and raised, and still living in Puerto Rico, the only trips I took to NYC were through the lenses of television programs and movies.  I had a lot in my head of what it would be like. In February 2018, I was able to lay all of my dreams to rest and enjoy the real experience of New York City.  It was wonderful.  As writers, the pen is our weapon and with it we can bring the message of strength, unity and bravery— which is exactly what The Bluestone Project wants us to see.  A basic, simple and powerful way we can unite a divided nation is through our words.”
