About Writer’s Block: Past her prime and afflicted with a severe case of writer's block, a veteran songwriter (Jane Lynch) finds it difficult to stay alive in the youth-driven L.A. music scene. Her relentlessly nagging agent (Andy Kindler) doesn't help her situation. Suddenly, Jane stumbles on some surprising new inspiration in the form of a bird that takes up residence outside her home. This comedic dynamo is directed by Troy Miller.
