Among the almost 45,000 men and women imprisoned in Pennsylvania's
innumerable state prison, are many who are endowed with remarkable
talents. Besides the numerous poets,
artists and musicians, some prisoners
are able writers. These authors see the world from the unique
perspective of one who's lost his/her liberty. Their works have
a distinctive flavor. They make good reading.
Some of the material is currently listed in the menu which
follows. We invite you to read all of it. We invite links from
other sites and blogs.
We are always seeking contributions of original literary work
of all kinds from talented prisoners. They may be
submitted by email
or by snail mail to: www.prisoners.com., Box 5251, Harrisburg,
PA 17110. We edit material for length, form and clarity.
We also accept contributions from non-prisoners. We publish
works by the families and friends of prisoners as well as by
officials, commentators and professionals. Anyone who has
something to offer for the betterment of prisoners or the public
may contribute a submission. Original work may be contributed
as listed above.
