Delighted you are writing about this. It gives me an opportunity to BRAG about my prison writers! I ran a writers' group for Lifers for three years. We submitted work to the Pen America Prison Writing Context. One of my writers placed first. One placed second and one was an honorable mention. This was out of more than 5000 submissions!

Thank you, Lauren. If it's okay, I'd be happy to post these in my Newsletter next week.
