So. Writing to prisoners is easy: you just have to go to writeaprisoner.com, choose a prisoner, and write to him/her. –which is cool, by the way, you should check out the site . . .
BUT, we were challenged to strike up a correspondence with an inmate. And that means getting someone to write back.
Well, we summoned all our “wiles”, wrote some letters, and hopefully we will hear back soon. There were definitely some prisoners who we were excited to write to, and who we sincerely hope write back.
To see who we wrote to, check out Larry (a creative, outlandish older man), Marcellus (a heartfelt, sincere, vaguely spiritual man), and James (an open and prolific writer).
To end this post, and to inspire you to visit writeaprisoner.com, a few words from Larry: “Don’t be the jug and cold water that you pour upon yourself- smell the flowers, take in some sun, dance with the wind, and live- LIFE!”
