To All Readers

I'm a 28 year-old African-American, 5 feet, 7 inches tall, about 150 pounds. I have light brown skin and I'm very athletic. I enjoy reading and watching sports. I am a highschool graduate who is self-taught in college curriculum.

Currently, I'm incarcerated in a state correctional institution in Frackville in East-Central Pennsylvania for robbery. I've been in jail since 1997. I should be making parole in about two and a half years.

I'm looking for a penpal to share my journey. Hopefully, she'll take my mind outside these walls of seclusion. Hopefully, you can help me expand my mind to a better world. Perhaps I can help you with your problems, too.

Please don't be alarmed by my crime. I'm not a violent person. I've been rehabilitated many times over. I'm the kind of man who strongly believes in family values and education.

I would love to correspond with anyone interested in making a great loyal friend with whom to share experiences and personal thoughts. I promise to be loyal and forthcoming. So, write to me. We can become penpals or lifelong friends. I'll respond to all letters.

[Editor's note: I know Rafiq. He's clever, good natured, witty, sociable, tolerant, gregarious and loquacious.]
