District 5 Commissioner FultonCommission5 kicks off this year's Write2Rise Workshop and Competition by telling these young writers about the work that lies ahead for them over the next several weekends.

One young writer reads his work to Tom Jones from WSB-TV at the first day of Write2Rise Workshop hosted by District 5 Commissioner FultonCommission5 . The program attempts to help young people improve their skills communicating with the world around them through the written word.
