I know the freedom my family and I celebrate today hasn’t come without sacrifice. Today I’m saying a prayer of thanksgiving for those who gave their lives serving our country.
Writing programs are making an impact on those in prison. I love that we get to be a part of something so important.

Indiana Prison Writers Workshop was on the Amplify podcast last week. We talk about our work in the prisons and interview one of my former students, Brett B., to hear about the impact the workshop had on him and where he is at today.

In "I Am Not Your 'Inmate'" @lawbartley writes beautifully about the dehumanizing impact of "inmate" + other labels. bit.ly/3g2bRw3. It's one piece in @MarshallProj's series exploring how to write about people and incarceration. Please check out #TheLanguageProject!
One of our former students shares his journey from incarcerated for 24 years to living a new life as a free man. You can read about his story on his blog shadowedmirror.com/blog/
