My book was inspired by Deborah Tobola, my writing instructor in the Page to Stage program supported by the William James Association, part of the Arts in Corrections. Deborah gave us writing prompts, some related to the coronavirus pandemic and others covering a wide range of topics. My connection to writing began with the Page to Stage program in 2018. We wrote poetry that was turned into scripts and performed as plays. I’ve performed in three plays on stage.

These stories arrive by mail.
Every month, a physical envelope arrives at your door, postmarked from San Quentin Village, California. Inside, you will find original artwork, writing, and recipes from real contributors, along with a personal letter from me, Diane Kahn, founder of Humans of San Quentin, about the people who made them. You read it. You keep it.
Every piece comes from someone serving a sentence. Every piece reminds you they are so much more than that.
