My Prison Journal - Volume 11

After 10 volumes approximating 105 thousand words, John Smith confesses his crime. Volume 11 is a sad, compelling read of a broken and desperate man. Today, July 2013, he’s encouraged. Smith acknowledges the many readers of ‘My Prison Journal’ with a special THANK YOU. This book is Volume 11 of a continuing series. It contains 10.7K words or 20+ print pages (5X8). It’s DRM free and lendable. This is a true story. John Smith (an alias) robbed a bank and was sent to prison for 10 years. This journal represents his prison experiences along with his innermost, personal thoughts. Reading books is Smiths’ only escape from reality. He claims to have read 185 , (now 200) books since his imprisonment in mid-2009. The publisher left the journals narrative without paragraphs, in hope of representing the hand-written notebook paper his manuscript composed. Smith says writing paper is valuable in prison and he must use all space available. Smiths’ journal entries are sad, compelling, and introspective, providing the reader insightful, perhaps teachable moments of human behavior in an adverse environment. Smith occupies a prison cell present day, July 2013. He has sent journal entries reaching August, 2011, (now January 2013), which will be made into volumes consisting of 10-20 thousand word allotments. Candidly, we’re not sure if Smith will send more entries; however, we are committed to publishing what we have. Ten years is a long time, representing several volumes.
