Hello

[dlb1980]

Hello everyone! I am a 28 year old single mother of a 2 year old son. I used to have a hobby of writing pen pals but I got out of it several years back. I decided that I wanted to get back into this hobby again and I have a uncle in prison for the rest of his life, so I thought what better way to start this hobby again then writing people who really needed and appreciated the letters I sent! So I am now starting to write pen-pals in prison. I came to this group in hopes of two things. One that I could help understand a little bit more about friends/family going through this and offer support if at all possible and that I could hopefully share a wonderful site I found that may interest some of you.
The site is http://www.askaconvict.com. You can ask questions or get advice from real people in prison, there are several other things on the site that are also interesting like a pen-pal section. I am getting NOTHING from this site nor is it my site. I have talked to the creator of the site who is a warden of a prison and is pen-pals with some of these men/woman. I just found the site to be very interesting and helpful in my new hobby that I hope to have a lifetime!
I hope to be a part of your community you have here and will try to check back daily! Thanks for listening and reading!
