Billy,
Hi, not sure if you are even going to remember, who I am it's probably been about 19 years. Still think about that drive we took around Baraboo and the talks we had, threw our letters and all the vists. But anyway I found some of your poems on line today,and of course they brought a smile to my face instantly, as they always did. I am so glad that you are or were still writing, and hoping you still are. I still have the ones you sent me so many years ago and still reread the one you wrote about me when times get a little rough.
Anyway I would love to hear back from you, if you would like that is, if not I will understand as well.

It has been a while take care,
Nicole

It’s good to see a recent writing from you. When I heard you kicked it I was very distraught and when I found out it was all vicious lies I was very happy. We’ve had our differences and over the years we’ve found common ground and respect for each other. Please continue to write continue to spread good wherever you can.

If I remember correctly, when someone leaves a negative comment, you never see it. A good idea to have someone filter your received comments and to ignore all the negative Nancies out here John. What's the saying in America? If people aren't talking about you, then you aren't doing anything right.

Negative Nancies hate being ignored, it's hilarious, because they seek affirmation. And for you to never even see what negativity they write, is very positive. Their jealousy eats at their soul, and hate controls them. It is not until they find God and learn forgiveness that they can find self peace. Even if not religious, they are lost souls knowing nothing but blame and hate, stuck in the past.

Some of them so jealous of you that they even started a rumor that you were dead. 😆

kudos to you for surviving and being alive. Keep at it, with your elegant and brilliant writing, your beautiful art, your teaching to help prisoners less fortunate, and all the great things you continue to do to make the world a better place. The hundreds of prisoners that now have a GED because of your help, will have better chances in society, and less chance of commitment of on other crime.

I believe in forgiveness and second chances, and my heart is light weighted and full of love and life. Right now, I smile, and I am happy. This is the way.

All of this aside, you were found guilty because you are guilty. You killed Ryan. You had a list of targets. You said you did it out loud to multiple people. You murdered a man.

The PLRA should be repealed. It was bad policy in the 1990s — an era full of unfair, punitive, and racist criminal justice laws — and allowing it to continue today is even worse policy. As this graph demonstrates, the rate of civil rights filings in federal court immediately dropped following the passage of the Prison Litigation Reform Act.

Please sign the petition today!

Thanks for the reply! I can answer your questions for sure!

You are communicating with a 35 year old female who lives in Tennessee (always been here). I am a registered nurse. I read about this website somewhere in the depths of my research into something, but I can’t remember what I was looking for. It had nothing to do with you. I was browsing through the authors on here and you were the only one I stuck with. My hobbies are atypical for a 30- something, so it isn’t weird that I would be interested in a prisoner’s writings. When I’m not reading and researching history, I am out in the cemetery cleaning graves that are over 100 years old. I use a special cleaner (same stuff that Arlington uses) and get stones to look brand new.

So, that’s a little about me. Look forward to any other writings and I hate you didn’t have the encouragement that you deserve!
