I received  post from you that you had sent me in Menard. I’ve transferred since then. My new address is at the top.

They did not give me all your mail. They did away with two things on it because it had emojis, which are not permitted here. No color things and all. They also gave me a cellie after thirty-five years of not having one. I am doing okay with it though. 

Thank you for the copy of the outlay you did setting me up. You got the photos off my Facebook. The artwork on there I did as well.

I am very grateful you reached out to me. Thank you.

Victor

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.
