Penpal Bios
RAKHUM Coffield Unit, Texas Love, Peace and Grace to everyone! How are you doing today? My name is Brandon C. Yocum, but friends call me "RAKHUM". I am 33 years young and from the Dallas/Fort Worth Area. Unfortunately I'm incarcerated in TDCJ at the moment. But a lil about myself; I am an entrepreneur, sub-contractor and tattoo artist. I have been working construction jobs my whole life. I'm also a heavy equipment operator (crane operator) and love working with my hands. For a side hustle, I've worked in several tattoo studios on & off for about 7 years. I enjoy art and music. I absolutely love and miss the outdoors and Mother Nature! Thank you for taking the time to read my bio! I pray that you have a blessed day :) With loyalty, love and respects! ~Sincerely, "RAKHUM" |

My hopes and dreams are to be a part of my son's life, buy a house and car, work...just live the American dream. Surround myself around good people, and maybe find a forever love. I am going to obtain my Associate Degree this Spring: GED VTS Plumbing & Electrical, sheet rock, mudding CDL & machine operator.

Lawrence W. SCI Benner Township, Florida Dear Beautiful Sisters of our lovely community, my name is Lawrence. I am 36 years old. I am from Philadelphia, PA. I am into music. I am a DJ. I produce and make beats, it's my life and passion and profession. The only thing I am missing that's been hard to have is LOVE. I am attracted to trans women and feminine queens, but more so trans women. I tried to find LOVE in jail and that just has not worked out at all and been all bad. Every relationship just been an episode of prison love so hip-hop, lol. I know myself to be a true KING on my very own chess board, but now I need a true QUEEN on my chess board with me to rule with me. My heart is open, I am funny and can be goofy at times. I am open minded, business minded, and like to learn new things. I have been incarcerated since I was 17, so I've been locked up for 19 years, and I go see parole again in April and pray for my release. Right now I am in the pursuit of happiness. I have my music in my life when I come home, but I also want to come home to a new best friend and leave my past behind me and move on to my next chapter in my life with new real friends and love and the love of music. I am also heavy on family. It was a secret about my life style when I was home being 15-17, and fully come out in jail to my family, so it was all support, well it was more easy for my mom, she part of our community, go mom right :) But sending love to my beautiful sisters and hope to hear from y'all soon. Signed with love, Lawrence |
Frank Williams Graham CC, Illinois My name is Frank Williams. I am a 47 yr. old Black male. I'm 5'9", 200 p. (majority muscle), brown skin, wavy hair, brown eyes. I've been incarcerated since 2004, my release date is Dec. 07 2025. I'm still in the process of appeal of my conviction. I enjoy reading, playing chess, cards, dominoes, exercising, music, sports and movies. I'm a humble, fun, loving, positive person; I can be serious when needed. Individuals tell me that I have a good heart & character; I'm intellectual, I make them smile, I listen to them & give whatever advice needed & that I am a handsome man. I'm the same person everyday, no matter what. I'm upfront, committed to everything I do, I'm a man of my word. I love seeing others smile, it takes too much energy to be negative. I enjoy learning new things, meeting new people, I'm an open minded person. I'm the same way on the street. A person can change their personality, they can't change their character! Since being here, I have matured as a man, spiritually, mentally, emotionally and physically. I've received five educational certificates, and trying for more. I'm a metrosexual, I've always been attracted to transgenders and women, I was afraid to admit my preference of transgenders, being here I've learned that it doesn't matter about the gender, what others think, or say, what matters is my heart, mind & soul, as well as the individual whom I'm with. My future aspectations [sic] outside of these walls is to live a happy, fun, positive, productive life, to build a better life. To whomever is reading this, what are your aspects in life? What are the things you want to establish in life? I would like to hear from whomever reads this. You can text me through GTL Connect Network: www.connectnetwork.com.

I'm looking 4 some1 or preferably a team of people to start a website 4 me & a monthly newsletter to help me expose the widespread corruption in the courts & LA Sheriff's Dep't that causes many innocent people 2 B wrongly convicted like me &/or selectively prosecuted or over-sentenced! I've been all 3 of those & I can easily prove hundreds of cops, judges, & lawyers have committed serious felonies & so far got no consequences. Meanwhile many life prisoners across the US have been wrongly convicted like me! Our system is not just- the people running it are the ones who actually deserve prison! Please read my profile thoroughly & contact me so I can show you the evidence of corruption in my case as well as widespread corruption in the LA County/CA courts & LA Sheriffs Dept B4 you decide whether or not to believe me! Don't be biased - look @ the evidence I have B4 you pass judgment on me! Due 2 the widespread corruption in the Public Defender's Office, I tried 2 represent myself early in my main case but the judge & DA both were violating my rights & withholding exculpatory evidence from me so I cited laws the judge & DA were breaking & instead of complying with the laws I cited & turning over the exculpatory evidence, the judge made up a bunch of excuses to revoke my right to represent myself & forced a puppet lawyer on me 2 silence me so I can't speak out about the judge, DA & sheriff's corruption... |
Christian Love TAYLOR CI, Florida My name is Christian Love, I'm 39, born in July, which makes me a Cancer. Someone once told me that what makes me stand out from the crowd is my personality. I have the ability to make people smile and laugh regardless of the situation. I like to be outgoing and don't mind "stepping out there" and taking a chance on accomplishing what's important to me. I grew up in a small town in Pennsylvania. I obtained a GED due to having to move out on my own during my senior year in high school. At heart, I'm a video game nerd who likes to play action and turn based RPG's. I also enjoy Dungeon Mastering and playing "Dungeons & Dragons" and/or "Path Finder," which gives me a great imagination, which leads me into...Some day I would like to be a video game designer or at the very least be a part of making video games. In terms of D&D, if you like to "roll the dice," write to me. Sincerely, Christian Love |
Uriah SCI Mahanoy, pennsylvania We all have a story to tell. I'm more of a listener. Caring is a bi-product of being denied a voice. I "love" in abundance. I fall "in" love quite easily. So I get hurt a lot. But I refuse to not love in one way or another. I've recently had to deal with my being superficial. I've overcome. I like to keep my reasons open. As to allow for others curiosity to be their drive in wanting to know more about me. I'm not complicated, nor do I have an ounce of hate. I'm 60 years old, as of this December 19th. I love being real, and not normal. I can never seem to follow "their" rules. I am me. And man do I like me. I'm humorous, I love hearing others laughter. And laugh as often as I can. Sometimes inappropriately. But without malice. I will not answer any question rather than lie. I have nothing to hide. But I'm so not into hurting other people. I am trans female by choice. And love being who I am. I am a large, long haired woman. I'm not looking for another's money, or need legal help. I do enjoy pictures and I draw obscure. Very obscure. I don't have limits to anything I can draw. I don't believe for a moment I am owed. I give out of caring. And with no strings attached. Entitlement is ugly to me. I am my fellow/sister's keeper. I can be a horn dog. But I try to be non-sluttish. (Try) I'm into the warmth of another. How someone looks is not what I go after. The person is what I desire. The heart. I'm not looking for a mate. But I'm not closed off to the idea. I have book ideas. Both fiction and nonfiction. My mind is an amazing place. I have an imagination that never rests. Call me Uriah, Sage was my past life. I've changed so much the past 9 months. I will answer any who wish to correspond with me. Remember I'm going to be 100% honest. "Love from inside" Uriah |
Tony Gentry Centralia CC, Illinois Greetings My Friends. I'm wishing each and every one of you abundance of love, peace, & kindness...and you deserve true happiness...Well here is a little about myself: I'm a Libra and I'm very open minded and creative with artwork and I love to play chess and I'm a true giver at heart. I'm a very spiritual person but I don't judge anybody so please don't judge me! I love watching movies and reading Sigmund Freud books! I believe in sowing seeds of love. I speak things into my life that's good and now I'm thankful to have you as my new penpal. I also study yoga meditation about the true self. LGBTQ love, Tony Gentry |
Bobby Brown mcconnell Unit, Texas My name is Bobby Brown, (so my name is known worldwide). :)I'm a gay white man, a few tattoos. I am 6'1 inch tall, brown hair, blue eyes and about 182 pounds. I stay in good shape & health, and told I look about 35 years old (I'm actually 52). I like all kinds of music, but my best is classic rock or classic country, (there's a lot of feelings in those songs). I love to dance to them. I'm a cert. welder & cert. elect. but my thing is drawing. I don't drink or do drugs, but everyone around me always has a good time because I keep them laughing, this brings me to another hobby of mine, changing someone's mood by getting them to laugh. If your day starts out bad, I can always turn it around. I've been locked up a long time, but through this time I got cert. for two trades (above) and received my G.E.D. I can come up for parole on Jan. 1st, 2026. My hopes are to get out, get a job welding, and part time job drawing, and have 1970 Chevelle (painted purple). Last of all, before I die, I want to ride an Ostrich. :) Smile, Bobby |
Chris P. Allred Unit, Texas Wow...okay. So I'll introduce myself by telling you specific words others have called me, and ones I claim for myself - give myself credit for through crazy-work that's brought me to who I am today: Guru, Teacher, Monk, Fighter, Superman, Realest Dude I Know, Lover, Humble/Honest, Scientist, Philanthropist, Shaman/Healer, Writer, Valedictorian of my GED add. I am at a place in life where I've become astonishingly-solid in my comfort with myself, and awareness of what I am able to do in this season in life. I want to see what I may share with others, and wish to meet people of different-cast than what's generally here around me...long story there, but I want to be brief. I'm open to speak to anyone lead to this place who wishes to write, as you wouldn't be reading this if Destiny had not lead you here; I hope you make it here, and overcome the things that attempt to stop you from gaining what I may be able to bring into your life...I invite you to attempt to put honest, blunt words down that you feel could truly apply to you. Ones others have told you, and ones you claim on your own. I feel it may be a way to see a lot of each other fast, for a first interaction, then we'll talk more after our first contact. I'm ready to answer any questions, and honestly try to give some healthy life substance to you, or whatever comes. I'm an incredibly open-minded person, with an unbelievable range of life-experience...ready to do something new! May you get something from this note, as I have making it. Sincerely, Chris |

Detroit Allred unit, Texas My name is Justin, and I am wondering if you could help me out with a little difficulty? I'm in search of a penpal who would not mind writing and developing a friendship. Someone once said "A stranger is just a friend you have not met." I believe that's true, do you? I love to write letters and meet new people, and I really hope we can connect and become great friends. I don't think we can have too many of those, do you? I believe in honesty upfront, feel free to ask any questions you have, okay? No topic is taboo! :) Don't hesitate to write. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Your new friend, Justin "Detroit" Szalla |
Spider WAshington SP, Washington Allow me to introduce myself: my friends call me Spider. I spent my formative years in Brownsville, Texas and the rest of my time in Moses Lake, Washington. My heritage is Huastec, and I'm proud of it. I love my culture and celebrate it any way possible. I am an artist and I want to open my own tattoo shop upon my release as it is a great passion of mine. I also have an affinity for airbrushing. I seek to better myself while in prison and my first big step towards that is getting my G.E.D. which I am currently working on. I have a soft spot for all walks of life, and most of my friends are transgender. So please feel comfortable writing me if that is your walk of life. I am a reformed man now and my previous life is no longer a part of who I am, so try me and see. :) P.S. Institutional email: JPay |
Mateo Casaus Stiles Unit, Texas DEAR READER: I will like to ask you some questions. Will you like to have a friend who doesn't lie or pretend to be someone else? A friend who is fully capable of being himself all the time? Whose outlook on life is thru a positive point of view in improving self that has its effects on others daily lives as a whole? I mediate [sic]. I exercise because it releases endorphins in my brain that's helpful. I don't drink or do drugs, "by choice." I have learned to observe & not respond to the hostility within prison. I don't need a costume. I'm a good person now. I will not make you feel unwanted or judge you in any way because we humans have 34000 emotions. This world is already filled with negative thoughts & actions. I will like to change that one person at a time. :) What makes me unique from other prisoners: I focus on learning people, business, stocks & bonds, capital structure. I keep my mind on something positive even when helping someone else. Thank you for reading my bio. I look forward to hearing from you! |

Ryan C. East Moline CC, Illinois Hello. My name is Ryan, nicknamed Ryno at a young age. I'm in search of a penpal who would not mind writing and developing a friendship. "Someone once said that a stranger is just a friend you have not met yet." Because I believe in trust, respect and honesty, feel free to ask any questions. I'm very open. I have placed a photo with this ad, so you can see the face behind my words. I really hope to connect and become great friends. "I don't think you can have too many friends." "Do you?" And right now I have none, which is mostly my fault for being incarcerated. Nothing in life is guaranteed, but should you consider becoming my friend, here's what I can offer you: someone you can come to for comfort, a heart that understands, and does not judge. A door that is always open and time devoted to you. Since my incarceration, I've used every moment to better myself. I've taken college courses, over 70 college credit[s]. I've completed a few other courses having to do with contracting as well as over 14 courses in Paralegal Studies, where I enjoy helping others with needed legal issues. If this sounds like something you would be interested in, then please don't hesitate to write. No matter what you chose, I hope that you are blessed this new year... |

Gary F. MacDougall CI, south carolina I'm 63 but with the energy of a 23 year old! Author and artist with books on Amazon and art on display at Cornell University and online with the Justice Arts Coalition. Penpals with staying power are difficult to find as life has a habit of getting in the way. I'm a hopeless romantic with a desire to lavish a special someone with picnics for two, candlelight meals and I never forget birthdays. A native Tarheel, I enjoy cooking, PBS, and reading. Prior to my incarceration, I was a world traveler and have lived in South Africa. I'm not into games and I'm not seeking lewd letters nor someone to send me money. My family takes care of me. If you're not into playing with people's emotions and you are seeking a little intelligent conversation and a friend with the possibility of more, then take a chance on someone who has had a broken heart but still believes in love. Love never dies, it merely sleeps awaiting a special someone to awaken it. By S.C. policy, I cannot receive nor reply to other prisoner's mail. |

John C. Robertson Unit, Texas Hello. My name is John, I am a 49 y/o Pansexual man, who is married to Krysta (of ABO Comix fame) who is a TransFemale (AMAB). We are Pagan in faith, and are both deep into Goth, Emo, BDSM and all that goes with it. I am writing a Book on Witchcraft, hopefully to be put into print this year...We (my wife and I) are both being held hostage by the State of Texas, and are in deep need of mail to help ease the pain of this place, our mail is all we have at this time. We both are steadfast advocates for the LGBTQI community, as my wife's artwork will show. We both fly our rainbow flag with PRIDE! In the mist of incarceration, this is the hardest place for people like us, but yet we are still here, our voice will be heard by many, we will leave our mark on this earth. Please feel free to write one or both of us, it's like a package deal, we are true soul mates who share this life no matter what, at this time we are sharing the pain of separation, and yes we still have each other, if we have nothing else, we will always have each other. But we are seeking new friends, who really want to enjoy the life of a married couple who just wants to really enjoy life, and seek life long friends, who like to write or more. We are honest to a fault, and are very open as life is just too short for games. But if you want a one of a kind relationship with some new people, please seek us out, and I promise you that you will not regret it. We will change your life...If you are up to the challenge then the time to write us is now...May The Dark Goddess bless all who reads this, and help guide your hearts to help those who need it...I sign off with love and respect...Blessed be, John & Krysta |
John H. Minnesota CF, Minnesota Hello to my new friends. Anyone looking for a good friend, I'm here. I'm caring, honest, loyal, open minded, nonjudgmental, and Wiccan. I enjoy painting, music, some sports, cars and writing. I make the most of my time, and refuse to let this place drag me down! Keeping a positive outlook on things despite all the negativity around me. Since coming here in 2005, I've learned myself how to paint and play some guitar. Having you in my life would mean a lot since family and friends have distanced themselves from me, especially after coming out as gay in 2015. So nothing would fill the void like getting letters and emails via Jpay from you. I would like to hear about you and the things you enjoy, that is whatever you're comfortable sharing with me. Much love & solidarity. |

I'm a very intellectual person who's searching friendship. I love to smile and my conversation can be unique. I've come to a point in my life where I just want change. I sure could have someone new and exciting to storm into my world and chase away my rainy days. I've been confined to segregation over 26 years now.

Devin Pemberton Marion USP, Illinois Hello, my name is Devin A. Pemberton, a 45 year-old Caribbean male who lives in Tampa, Florida. I am in search of a nice penpal who would not mind corresponding with me for uplifting, inspiring, motivating, and encouraging correspondence. Prison is a lonely place, but having you as a friend would be absolutely PRICELESS. A little about me: I stand at 6'2, 225lbs, athletically built, dark brown, 100 tattoos, attractive, intelligent, fiercely loyal, an empathetic listener, and I possess lengthy, neat, groomed dreadlocks that come to my waist, embracing my African-Caribbean heritage, history, roots, and culture. On August 20, 2019, I graduated from Blackstone Career Institute as a certified paralegal. I am an expert credit repair specialist. I am also a published author of an urban EROTIC novel entitled, "Pimp Passion", which is the most erotic urban novel in the world and a best seller on Amazon. I am passionate and relentless in the pursuit of constant never-ending improvement. This prison sentence does not define me but develops me into an asset to whomever I encounter. I am determined to turn this tombstone into stepping stones, these barriers into bridges, and these obstacles into opportunities. I want to change the narrative of what success looks like from a United States Penitentiary. I accomplish everything in my life by channeling negatives into motivation. The universe provides and I attract all those provisions into my world - let me connect you to the universe. The power of POSITIVE thinking will overcome many things. Our greatest glory consists not in never failing but in rising every time we fall. Thank you for your time, for a grateful heart is a magnet for miracles. I hope you hear from you soon, and I will immediately write back. |
Kevin J. Green Haven CF, New York Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by my profile, and for considering writing someone incarcerated. This fact alone says a lot about the person you are. I'm not used to talking about myself like this, but I wanted to give it a try, because at this point in my life, and spending the last 3 years in prison, I really feel like I could use a couple of friends. I'd like to know about you, your life, your dreams, your hopes, what you're looking for in life. You could be my window to the world, and I'd be happy to be a good, loyal and supportive friend to you. I try to make the most of every situation. I am very laid back. I enjoy poetry, yoga, meditation, and I like nature, being outside is a great feeling. I am very pleased to be a part of this website. Hit me up, ask questions, I am an open book. |
Marcos Henderson USP Big Sandy, Kentucky I Wanna Share I wanna share your thoughts as well as mine, because true friendship is hard to find, and right now I have plenty of time - to share, because I was blessed with a heart that knows how and wants to care. I wanna share my wins, losses, hopes and fears. I wanna share joy and tears. I wanna share intellect, introspect and respect, because I've had enough of neglect and reject, making me have to jet. I've seen and been through enough to know that life isn't fair, and most people are all take and no give, so I just wanna share. Marcos Henderson |
Bro. Kwesi Maryland CTC, Maryland Peace and Love, I greet all readers with the utmost respect, praying and hoping this bio reaches you in the best of health and good spirits. My name is Lamont Kwesi Harrell Sr. and I'm looking for a down to earth person who's open minded and non-judgemental that I can build a solid bond and life long friendship with. I'm very genuine with a good heart, and love helping people in any way I can. What makes me special is that I am a critical thinker who thinks for myself never allowing others to dictate my actions, words or deeds. I love to read, write poetry and exercise on a daily basis to keep my mind, body and spirit strong. I look forward to one day starting my own personal trainer company when I'm liberated from behind enemy lines. This is one of my goals, hopes and dreams. Creating this platform will allow me to meet people from all walks of life and hopefully have a profound impact in their lives. I've been told by multiple people that I am a rare specimen due to my strong will and raw energy. I've written a poetry and exercise book while incarcerated to help the masses on this location by sharing some of my personal struggles with them while at the same time educating them on the importance of staying active by exercising so they can stay healthy. With that I'm going to close this bio out the same way I came with the utmost respect praying and hoping to hear from a beautiful soul soon. Peace and Love, Bro. Kwesi |

People have many cool nicknames for me but smiley is the most common, and the one I like most. Most penpals want something from you. Not me. I am offering you my everything.

I have brown eyes and black hair. I'm very outgoing and like getting to know people. Recently a friend of mine told me that I have a light about me that's very peaceful and inviting.

I try to see the good in people and treat everyone with respect. I'm looking for a friend I can share a laugh with and get to know their story. I'm currently taking college classes for Vanderbilt University where I study Theology. Also, on the town, I took 2 years of classes to become an ordained minister, but I'm no longer interested in that career because all they'd talk to me about was how I was going to hell for being gay. Along with the Theology classes here, I also work as a service dog trainer. The dog I'm training is a lab named Leia. What about you? What are some of your dreams? What makes your heart smile? What's something you are passionate about? If a song was your anthem, what would it be? |

No suit needed and no boring stories required. If you can dance, that's a plus. If you want to be aware of me, well I'm a Netflix star, for real. I come out in a documentary called "I Am a Stalker." It came out two months ago, but that's not why I'm in prison. I am actually interested in learning. I like learning about a lot of stuff. I really like making blueprints of stuff I think of. I am a funny person but also eccentric. I am into math, science, computers, electronics, astronomy, music, robotics and people. No, I'm not a weird person who's out of touch. I'm interesting and want to listen to what you possess to say. Writing to me you will not regret because I will make you laugh and will want to talk about yourself all the time. But that's what I want. People say that I'm a really nice person and am very friendly. I like to listen to all you need to say and like to talk about you, because you are what I want to talk about. My hope is to go from prison and go back to college. I want to go for computer science and hopefully med school. I want to try to pay my own way through it all. My dream is to start and create a corporation worth mentioning. That way with the final profits of it, I want to assist people to possess a better life. I'm just looking for friends to write to and hope that they can see the truth and honesty within me. I just want to laugh, cry, and smile with all kinds of people. So please write me and I will answer any and all letters. Plus, no question is too taboo to ask me. I will answer any and all questions. The song that I like the most is: "When I Need Love" by Leo Sayer, check it out. By the way, you possess food on your chin and are you going to answer that phone? |

Harold Lee Estelle Unit, Texas I am Harold Lee, a 72 yr old bi male (172 some days). March of 2023 begins my 21st year in prison - only 17 more to go! Friends and family tend to fade away. Tis sad yet true. So I now reach out to you...Looking, hoping to meet a new friend. Male? Female? In between? Trans? It matters not if, like me, you're lonely and need a friend. I like to write letters and I'll write to you any place on earth. To me the cost of postage doesn't compare to the value of a new friend. Email is available, write for details. If you like to laugh, I can keep you giggling. I'm open minded about life and living. Need someone to confide in? Advice? Someone who won't judge and will support you? I do not judge and I'm confidential. Ask me anything. I'm open to questions and I'll ask some. No lies from me either. I have a strong sense of humor. I write poetry [example in center panel] when inspired. I created "Podlife" - a cartoon series about life in prison. A.B.O. Comix published a book of "Podlife" cartoons! Puns & sarcasm are my friend. |
Scary Movie Polunsky Unit, Texas Hey you!! My name is Manuel Rios but I am known by one and all as "Scary Movie." It was a nickname I never wanted but somehow it stuck like white on rice. Now, years later, I've grown quite fond of the moniker. I am a 45 year old bi-sexual male of Mexican ethnicity. A Texas boy at heart but army brat in soul. I am a serious goofball, I know right? A paradox. But that is me in a nutshell. A mystery wrapped in an enigma in a box of quirks. I am an artist and sometime poet for A.B.O. Comix. It is a pleasure and an honor to say that a degenerate outcast like me is part of an outstanding collective, no better family. |

I am working every day to become a better person and need someone who is willing to help me along my path. Right now, I'm learning quite a bit of math. I have some huge dreams and would like to meet someone who can help to achieve them. I hope to be home in the middle or late 2024. I can't wait to get my life started. -Geremy |

Kinoko Lovelock CC, Nevada Hey kids! So, art started for me consciously as a child. It became a safe place to explore my sense of wonder, curiosity, and sacredness. I am still figuring out how I identify myself, however the recent acquisition of gender fluidity helped me gain insight into my feminine spirit. I am 58 years old, love art, love life, and love to learn. Let's talk about anything you'd like...A girl needs friends, so write me! I'm an open book and transparent about myself and my life, so no subject is off limits. All my love, Kinoko (kee-no-ko) :P |
Fuller Zine Torres Unit, Texas I knew that once this odyssey began, my only hope for maintaining sanity was in keeping in contact with the outside. Although cloistered together in close quarters, we're neither monks nor punks. Lost in that ether between sinners and saints, we stand up against corruption and oppression in all its forms. Instead of electing a single village idiot, we seem to have several. Forget all those stereotypes about gladiatorial combat and the Hollywood perpetuated shower rape scenarios. Here, it's more like a commune of students, teachers, and various artisans. Personally, I focus on art, writing and advocacy. You'd be surprised at the resourcefulness one can develop under these kinds of circumstances. By far, the most ingenious product manufactured here...is HOPE! And if we can find it in a place like this, then rest assured that we can teach anybody anywhere how to find it! Perhaps it sounds too good to be true. Well...you're not going to find any unicorns or rainbows on this adventure. What you will discover is a lot of honesty and hard work. Nothing good comes easy. There is so much more to all of us than meets the eye. Time for show and tell! You show me yours...and I'll show you mine. Much love and respect, Brian Fuller |

Candice Leandra Hughes Unit, Texas Hello, I'm so glad that you stopped to read this. Thank you. My preferred name is Candice Leandra Anderson. I am a M-F transgender/transsexual woman & pansexual & polyamorous. I'm looking to exchange letters with people that I can become friends with. I am not seeking romantic conversation or companionship, just casual communion & conversation with my LGBTQIA+ family. Most especially my trans and non-binary/genderfluid persons. I being trans know how important affirmation, acceptance & genuine understanding are & can be. I'll always make time to answer anyone that writes to me. I love you all.

I'm worth your time. Thank you. |
Terry M. Polunsky Unit, Texas Hello world! My name is Terry, I'm a Leo, born in 83 and have been locked up for the past 21 years with more to go. I am looking to make a few good friends that can help me pass the time. I am a country boy, love animals, being outdoors, drawing/painting, country music and making other laugh. I look for the positive in life and believe that the meeting of two personalities is like the meeting of two chemical substances; if there's any reaction at all, both are forever transformed. I am looking for that transformation, are you too? I have many interests/hobbies: the NFL, reading and learning new things, I'm crafty and like to make things, playing chess, we can talk about whatever you'd like. I am not looking for nothing but a friendship with somebody who has the time to correspond on a regular basis and enrich my life. I have been held in segregation for the past 18 years so have very little contact with the free world. Your looks, race, gender and nationality are not important to me; I believe friends can be found in many different places and do not limit myself, so if you think we click, feel free to contact me anytime. I thank you for reading this and look forward to hopefully hearing from you. Until then take care. |

Hunter Montiel STafford Creek CC, Washington Greetings potential penpal! :) First off, I am an Italian/Spanish gay inmate looking for a penpal. Also for a friend that won't judge me for my past and possibly create a great friendship. Currently, I am 28 years old, 5'5", 160 lbs, and a gay cis-male. My hometown is Tacoma, WA U.S.A. Ideally would like my penpal to be around my age and part of my same community (LGBT+) but I do NOT discriminate age and anyone can message me. 2012 is when I graduated high school with a diploma (Stadium High School) in Tacoma. My main goal is to create new and lasting friendships. Before incarceration you would find me in the outdoors being active like, hiking, snowboarding, hanging out with friends, rock climbing and being a beach bum just to name a few. Don't forget the weekends and doing the "Seattle night life" like going to the club to have a drink and dance the night away on Capitol Hill (Neighbors, The Purr, The Cuff, and R Place). There are more but those are the ones I would frequent. Sooooo my favorite time of the year/month would have to be "June," why you ask? 1. It's summer time. 2. My birthday month (06/09). 3. Pride month. Please let potential penpals know I am able to email (Securus), make phone calls (Securus), and hand write letters. I am very excited for the potential opportunity to receive a penpal. Thank you for taking the time to read my bio. Send me a message and let's start to communicate. |

Could you put a smile on mine by being my penpal? Have yourself a wonderful day. Thanks for taking the time to read my bio! |
Dennis M. Idaho State CI, Idaho I'm a very controversial person with controversial opinions. I believe you have the right to love the person you want, and believe what you want to believe. Everything should be okay that does no harm. I'm the leader of a Greek Pagan group ("Erosian") and author of a few online books and lots of magazine articles. Love guys with long hair, and collect pics of guys in "tighty-whities." I believe in the 4 pillars: love, joy, freedom, magic. Doing a lot of time for taking a picture of boys kissing - which would not have put me in prison except in Idaho. There was no sex or nudity but I was convicted - more for my views and the fact that I am gay (had permission to take the pic). Looking for penpals who don't believe in judging others - even if they've made mistakes in the past. I'll discuss any topic - nothing is too controversial or "taboo" - so long as it's consensual and nobody gets hurt! I was incarcerated under "Dennis Mintun" but most people call me "Spanky" (from The Little Rascals, since I was 7) or my religious name "Abbadunamis." (Twitter: @Abbadunamis). My books and articles can be found at: safestreetsarts.info, spotlightonrecovery.com, dhinitiative.org, idahoinsider.net, themarshallproject.org, eveningstreetpress.com and more! All humans are gods in various states of evolution. Also available on Jpay.com (Idaho) |

Miguel A SCI Benner, Pennsylvania Hello There! My name is Miguel and I'm a state inmate at the Pennsylvania Department of Corrections. I'm hoping to find penpals that would like to share thoughts, feelings and ideas with me. My hobbies and interests are: Drawing, writing, poetry, anime, manga, video-games, cooking, music. My ultimate goals in life are to one day redeem myself by establishing myself as a great artist and helping others with my creative ambitions! I don't have many positive things to share in regards to myself, but quite a few people have told me that I have nice hand writing, which is funny because for most of my life, I've had awful penmanship, but an inmate in county jail actually helped me improve my handwriting. Best wishes, Miguel |

Brandon Agnew King County Cf, wASHINGTON Hi, my name is Brandon Agnew. I am 33 years old, born and raised in Washington State. Growing up, having different sexualities and orientations was not openly accepted in society yet. I still have struggles in letting go and opening up. The fear of judgment and rejection keeps me paralyzed. Though I yearn for someone to help me feel safe and excited to finally be my true self. I grew up on the river. Going diving for golf balls and cray fish and cruising the river on my zodiac. I have a passion for wakeboarding and snowboarding. I love to draw so much that I became a tattoo artist about 7 years ago now. I love helping others. Tattooing is my way to help, whether it's a piece to remember a loved one or to cover a scar that leads to self consciousness. I also enjoy the outdoors and long drives. Trips to the mountains or to ocean shores. Hearing about other walks of life captivates me as well as other cultures. I respond to anyone that I hear from. I don't care about age, race or religion. I care about who YOU ARE and who you WANT TO BE. Lately I have been working on drawing flowers, portraits and lettering like calligraphy. Looking for someone genuine, funny and who is excited by some similar interests or who can introduce me to their own interest. |

Toby Maciel Montford Unit, Texas If you're looking for someone new then we already have something in common so write back and I'd like to hear from you. I am a good listener and I would love to hear your story. Through my life experiences I completely understand that true loyalty and friendship is hard to find, but I continue to be loyal, not judgmental, honest and positive and in any and all relationships. I have things to help pass the time. I read all forms of literature and I love animals. Growing up on the westside of San Antonio, Texas, I face a lot of adversity. But I love my city due to diversity and opportunities, and in prison I face challenges each day beginning with an early meditation and not speaking down on those around me. However, I feel out of place I cut from a different cloth. I enjoy helping those in need, I have an outstanding sense of humor, and enjoy anything retro 80's, boxing, comics and inspired to leave a positive mark in this world. If you can relate, I would like to know more, please write or send Jpay email. Anytime whenever you feel the need to express yourself or vent your thoughts, or even your problems, I'm here. Sincerely, Toby |

Isabella Marie PINCKNEYVILLE CC, ILLINOIS I have absolute minimal understanding about what's expected of me writing this. But even that amount is fair and an acceptable standard here in Illinois. Now buckle in, hold my drink and don't panic if you see cherries n berries in the rearview. I got this! My name is Isabella (Lucas Shaffer). I'm a 31 yr old (6-19-89) trans girl pre-op, headlights and new tires. I look like Eminem, Taylor Swift, a great Dane and Jax from Sons of Anarchy had a baby. I'm athletic & love to play most sports. I like to play chess, draw, laugh, and like a zillion other things. I like the rain, the moon, spiders (no, I'm not a witch) and most animals. I believe in God. I like SpongeBob, PBS and WWII shows (gettin old). I dislike liars, users and people who can't handle a joke. I'm outgoing, honest, intelligent, courageous and compassionate, to name only a few. But it's not all about me. We've all had a hard life but I have a story. I'm more than screen deep and there are more than two sides to my piece of paper. I know who I am and where I want to go but I'm not perfect. I know defeat; it is in failure that we learn the most lessons that can be taught, only won through losing... And I've lost everyone & everything... Then again, "Sometimes when things are falling apart, they may actually be falling into place." -Isabella Marie |

Beautiful Disaster Lewis Unit, Texas Let me start by saying I'm serving time for a crime I regret, I killed my mom in a drunken moment. With that off my chest, I'm 41 y-old, a Leo and a Generation X baby. :) I love food of all kinds. I enjoy all kinds of music & people. I'm attracted to very feminine men, the girly girl type and women mostly but I've been known to change up from time to time to keep my lover & best friend happy, my wife. We are very open, so. :) I'm no girly girl but will dress up and play with queens any time. :) My given name is Raymond Terrell Goodwyn Jr. But my wife named me 'Beautiful Disaster' so I tattooed it as a tramp stamp above my Hello Kitty tattoo haha no joke, you'd just have to see. I'm what my nieces call a 'House Bitch.' I love to cook and clean almost every day, very home oriented, so. I lived in Oregon, Portland for 10 years. I ♡ the sean I dig techno -n- grunge hahaha. Enough about me!! Let's hear you talk for awhile. Hahaha I'm a better listener. :) PS I do amature tattooing and piercing of all kinds. -Beautiful Disaster |
Kit Cubheart Daniels Unit, Texas I'm a bisexual cis-male who cares more about the personality than the equipment. I have a loving boyfriend named Matthew who would be happy as I am to find a few friends. A few things about me: I am a Babyfur, which is a member of the furry community who enjoys being treated as a baby or "cub." This includes wearing and using diapers, being bottle-fed, having a pacifier, etc. I'm also a brony, an adult-fan of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. My top 5 characters are (in no real order): Princess Luna, Twilight Sparkle, Discord, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash. I ship Flutter-Dash, btw. I like lots of music, mainly pop, classic rock and cartoon theme songs. I'm a huge nerd and love Pokemon, Power Rangers, and Sonic the Hedgehog. I'm a fan of anime/manga and all things Japan. I am currently working my way through Naruto and have read through Vol 54. I would love a penpal who's open-minded and willing to print lyrics and pictures/comic pages off the internet. I can't wait to make tons of friends with all of you out there! I hope to hear from you soon! -K |
Man-Man Western MO CC, Missouri My name is Marion M. Chapman and I'm from Kansas City, Missouri. I've been drawing for about 40 years, ever since I was 5 years old. My mother told me stories of how I used to draw pictures for her all the time. At about 10 years old I could see how spots and rust had images like shapes of faces, hands, etc. I still to this day can find art and beauty from just about any object with marks, scratches, stains or smudges that you consider a disgrace. I have a twin brother that was stolen from my mother during birth, so that being said, I feel connected to my twin as if he shows me what to look for. I'm now 45 years young with dreams of leaving this prison life behind and have a career being an artist of issues that others can relate with. It is the affliction of my life that has given me insight, but I don't know if it's the life within me or from without. When I see patterns, I see light but this is only my vehicle to express that which is within me so that I may not emotionally be without, though I can work in different disciplines of expressionist art. I can say it's because I'm not traditionally trained that gives me an edge, for the simple fact of constraints that normally would bind me, liberates me. This could be a direct blast with being incarcerated a large portion of my life. Yet I still find that I am finding myself within my work. Thank you a lot for this outlet. |
RUIN Estelle Unit, Texas Infinity is androgynous; Eternity is polyamorous. Love all, in all ways, for always! Our LGBTQIA+ movement is essential for releasing the repressed libido in the collective unconscious and integrating this vitality with the psyches of all people on Earth, and contributing to the human species' healthy progress in the process of the perpetual evolution of sentient & living being in our universe. I worship no deities, and I have no phobias or prejudices. I'll correspond with anybody about anything. I welcome all beings, however wretched or exalted. I wish to find opportunities for informal academic study and personal mentoring, useful and fun ways to earn a basic income from inside prison, and patiently openminded relationships of all varieties. -RUIN, the Blue Faun |

Jeremie G. Beto Unit, Texas Hello there! My name is Jeremie and I am a bi guy. It's crazy, hardly anyone in the world knows this, including my family. I'm not ashamed of who I am but feel that a lot of my friends and family just won't understand. What would make me stand out in a crowd? Hah! My height. I'm 6'7" and as skinny as a rail. What my friends like about me is I'm friendly and happy. Though I am in prison for a long time, I don't let it get me down. Right now I'm learning how to be a cook. It's funny, but the last eight years, everything I've cooked involved ramen noodles and/or rice in a plastic bowl! I love to read sci-fi, horror, fantasy, historical fiction. I'm also a Star Trek nerd. I was in the navy for 13 years as an air traffic controller. Well, hope to talk to you soon! |
Justin Everett Middleton Unit, Texas Hello, my name is Justin Everett but peeps call me Scoop cause of my underbite and also cause I'm into everything lmao. I would add color and drawings but I'm currently housed in segregation at the moment but it's only temporary. Maybe I'll update my bio when I reach [general] population.

Kitsune Cubheart Connally Unit, Texas Hi there! My name is Kitsune Cubheart. (That is key-tsu like the zz in pizza - neh). I like Japanese! I'm actually learning the language. "Kitsune" can be written in kanji form: 狐 or with hiragana: き(ki)つ(tsu)ね(ne), see? Now, I want to tell you right away that I'm a baby fur. What this means is that I'm a furry (I like to dress up and play as an anthropomorphized animal character - think movies like Sing and Zootopia) that likes to be treated as a baby/toddler (wearing/using diapers, drinking from baby bottles, etc.). Now I know this sounds weird, but it's not a bad thing. It's just a way to destress and let go of adult worries for a time. I'm looking for a friend who can share my interests in video games, anime/manga, and who has an open mind about odd subcultures (like the baby fur thing). I would appreciate (although certainly don't require) someone who would be okay with printing various items off of the internet and mailing them to me. Stuff like song lyrics, stories, pictures and likewise. But I'll certainly be satisfied with someone who will simply write me and be a friend. I've been told that I'm a very cheerful person and I rarely fail in making someone smile. I can't wait to hear from you! Your new friend (hopefully), Kitsune Cubheart よろしくお願いします Yoroshiku onegaishimasu (nice to meet you!) |

Tammy Beth Walker Hughes Unit, Texas I'm Wiccan, 39 years young, I now consider myself non-binary. I am an artist yet have been focusing solely on my writing for the last few years. I am in the process of writing my own anthology. Basically 1 book, 10 to 15 short stories, all wrote in my cell. I am looking for a penpal. I am not looking for love. I am in a relationship, about to get married to my longtime lover, "John Walker," he's great. Mostly I'm looking for folks that have ideas, dreams, etc. People that think I'm in prison and in Seg most people around me can't or won't think. I guess it hurts them. Now here is my big warning, my Gods/Goddesses made me very sensitive. I am a very caring/loving person. Something of a modern day pagan hippy. And yes I own 2 Volkswagen Microbus 1972 models (hippy vans). I used to work in the Carnival. So I'm letting all penpals know if you are LGBTQI - = then I love you because you are my kindred spirit and if you are Native American/Two Spirits that's awesome. We're all fam to Natives. I grew up on Creek Nation land in Oklahoma. I love all ya'll. Tammy Beth Walker |

Q-Tip Clements Unit, Texas Wassup world? My name is Troy but people call me by my nickname which is Q-Tip. I was looking for someone to write. I'm a person who goes off energies and I love getting to know people. I considered myself very open-minded or at least I strive to be every day. I believe being vulnerable, open, honest is the best way to connect with people. Enough about me, I don't want to spoil the experience someone special can explore with me so you have to write me for the rest of the story. "Criminals" When men first come into contact with crime, they abhor it if they remain in contact with crime for a time, they become accustomed to it and endure it if they remain in contact with it long enough they finally embrace it and become influenced by it. |
Mike C. North Branch CI, Maryland Jambo (Kiswahili for "Hello/Hi"). It is my intention to fill the void inside of me that materializes every second that I'm hidden away from society in a concrete and razorwire pit. I long for someone who is willing to travel this road, struggle with me and SEE ME. Someone living their best lives. Someone I can build a meaningful bond with that is built upon an invaluable fusion of consistency, trust, loyalty, vulnerability, upliftment, respect, motivation and commitment, not will surpass my incarceration. Someone who is willing to abandon any reservations regarding who I am solely based upon my current location. My character consists of being loyal, charismatic, generous, strong-willed, open minded, creative, intelligent, humble, dedicated, motivated, disciplined, understanding, confident, socially/politically/economically conscious, patient, tactful, resilient, attentive, cultured, supported, charitable, easy going, optimistic, innovative, genuine, serene and understanding. My daily routine while incarcerated consists of mastering self, planning for life post incarceration, pursuing legal remedies to earn my freedom, exercising, eating, reading, drawing and writing (freelance articles, music, poetry, and novels). My interests are: Black history, social/economic justice, criminal justice reform, transformative/restorative justice, education, legislation, youth development, botany, astrology, world history, business, fashion, wine, cigars, auto-mobiles, agriculture, and art. This is who I've BECOME after being incarcerated for nearly a decade forced to address my shortcoming. Please do not misconstrue my progress as a claim of perfection because I am not. Instead, what I am is one who has discovered their purpose and adopted on willingness to sacrifice any thoughts/behaviors that will hinder not only my evolvement process but also that does not line up with me subsequently achieving my goals. Are you capable of reciprocating my energy? Enough about me, I'd love to hear about who you are. |
David Z. FCI, cONNECTICUT Introversy Is my unique verse, you see. I try to stay alive in this ebb called Time, But it eats me - a termite with hungry vice, Which I can only fight With poetic device. DEAR READER, how do you fight time? -Education = post secondary -Likes = outdoor activities (hiking, camping, etc.), music, writing (poetry), drawing (know every little), drinking -Hopes = beating this dungeon -Dreams = abolishing this dungeon |

Vince Vader Ironwood SP, California Hey, I'm Vince Vader and I could be your new friend, if you're vibing this. I've been working harder than a prostitute to be seen by you.

Shannon W. Ellsworth CF, Kansas Shannon W. - 45 years old White transwoman in Kansas Brown hair, blue eyes, tall and thin. The Loveless Lover Oh the throes of the loveless lover. One oar on the sea, no one on the other. Adrift without purpose to founder or land, and still thirst underwater or drown on the sand. When there is no one to listen, what is there to say? Tell yourself how you feel and the words will betray. And why bother feeling when it don't feel as it should? Alone, on their own, for the lover is no good. Their hearts need receiving and are also for giving, and without that exchange there is no joy in living. The loveless lover is like a dreamless sleep, a nocturnal descent into a bottomless deep. Everyone is beautiful to me! Out for three months and proud to be me! Looking for good friends. I know there will always be closed-minded and intolerant people who will refuse to acknowledge a person's identity if it doesn't work for them. I see it as tugging on the Jenga block that threatens their very foundation. To them I say, "If you leave me alone, I will leave you alone. You don't have to see me, close your eyes. I cannot and will not disappear. You don't have to hear me. I will go out of my way not to speak to you, but you do not represent everyone. Some want to listen. You don't have to like me. I love how you can express yourself so freely. I will too. You don't even have to let me occupy a single bit of real estate in your mind, yet there I am by your own choosing. I am fascinating. My story is captivating. And I am liberating myself from the confines of your freedom. I no longer accept your version of who I am supposed to be. I have a right to exist." The Real Girl - Dedicated to all Trans people everywhere who only want to feel real. I love you all. Get in touch with me. There is a woman, exquisitely made. Her lips and her eyes wear the perfect shades. Silky and long, she has put up her hair, so everyone can see the necklace she wears. And like those of a princess, her delicate shoes go with the purse on her arm in matching hues. This beautiful woman wears a fabulous gown, and she is all dressed up for a night on the town. But on this gown there are spots of red, and in a pool of her blood, this beauty lies dead. What could be the cause of this tragic scene? It becomes clear when some nearby objects are seen. There is a long sharp knife close to her on the floor, with the couple of things she could bear no more. This precious creature only wanted to feel right, and she didn't want to die, but died happy that night. Poetic, easy to like, writer, lover, friend, funny, sincere, intense, deep. |
Graham Kracker Airway Heights CC, Washington My name is Graham some call me Kracker because of it. The name was given to me by my transgender friends to call back to how I used to be. I have been broken down and shaken to my core by the love and care they have shown me. I am 43 and have been submitting to A.B.O. Comix for about 2 years now. I like various types of music, draw, play the bass, write songs and poetry. I also know and help transgender people with legal work if needed. I am a motivated, dedicated person. I am one of true heart, without all the drama and B.S. I know that all have gone through something. If we didn't go through what we had to go through, we wouldn't be who we are today. When I get released I also hope and want to help transgender people in prison as to their rights and treatments. I'm also looking forward to meeting new people and being a positive self. My other interests are street racing, snow mobiling, camping, fishing, listening to music, watching movies, being of heartfeltness, there for one another in an encouraging way. Hope to hear from you! |
