Thanks for writing! I worked on the transcription for your post. It isn't quite done yet. I hope you get a new celly that you like. Until then talk more with your cellmate, maybe they'll tell you something you didn't know about them before. I hope you are well. - Kenna
Thanks for writing! I finished the transcription for your post. I am not Sona186, but I hope you are doing well and that more people respond to your blogs!
Hello Mr Mahaffey. I think the cover works effectively. You get the feeling of the jail bars and the implied oppression. Orange, white and black are great colours to use, obviously because of the public’s awareness of them being representative of clothing worn by inmates, All around nice one, make sure it’s available on kindle and other digital devices as people tend to revert to these methods when choosing what to read. The kindle version normally does an early release of something prior to the hard back paper back versions. If I’m anything to go by, I usually buy the kindle version then get the hard copy. Looking forward to reading it, All the best for your next work. T
Thanks for writing! I finished the transcription for your post. I thought your idea of COVID-19 not being our "New Normal" particularly interesting. I think that's an uplifting idea, and I can not wait until we can go back to what is truly our real normal.
First off, thank you for writing back. That's a great question! To put it simply, Between the Bars asks for people to transcribe letters in order to help make them more accessible to search engines as well as translators and other visitors who may not know English. I personally do it because it's a way to keep busy during quarantine, and I have a passion for criminal justice. I come on here to read and transcribe the stories of prisoners so that they can know that someone somewhere has really read their writing and hears them. There is so little I can do to help in these times, but Between the Bars offers me a chance to help out, even in the smallest of ways. I hope this clears things up a bit.
