Read MoreI am not a journalist or a professional author, though I have had the privilege of being published. My true passion is creating art and music, while fostering connection with people. As an enthusiast and an amateur writer, my intention with this blog is to provide a nuanced and authentic portrayal of life behind bars. I aim to shed light on the treatment of incarcerated individuals, the intricate culture within the prison system, and the myriad experiences—both good and bad, confusing and ugly—that define our daily existence.
Through my writing, I hope to bridge the gap between the incarcerated and the outside world. When you see a correctional facility on the news or encounter someone who has been through the prison system, my goal is to equip you with a deeper understanding of their background and experiences. By doing so, I aspire to foster empathy and encourage the recognition of the humanity in every individual, regardless of their circumstances.
