Dear Grace,

I'm so very sorry that could have been rushing or whatever it was. I am sorry. My release date right now is July 16, 2019 and I'm looking to be out with good time between June 26, 2019-June 30, 2019. It's getting closer as the days and weeks go by, but it feels like it's taking forever.

If you wish to go to www.dc.state.fl.us and type in my first and last name, and DC#, and each month it will show you if my release date goes up or down if you wish to do so. I can only pray my mugshot doesn't scare you away. Yeah, it's bad. I was pissed they wouldn't let me shave when it was taking. I was having a really bad day then.

I'm glad you're giving country music a chance. That was what I was raised on. Send me some other songs that you like of the music you like.

Marsha, you not a bad poet and never let that thought cross your mind. It's going to be people that like and love your work, and then you going to have haters. But never let that get in your way because you are a great poet, Ms. Marsha. So any of your beautiful poems will be good to post on Facebook. If you ever get a chance to go to your public library, check out 2018 Poet Writer Market or 2019 Poet Writer Market. They are packed with a lot of good information for any poet. If I had a way to get to any one of them, I would have them.

Yeah, the world is moving fast but don't let the future scare you because whatever is going to happen is going to happen. Some things we can control and some we can't, so why not get the GED?

To answer your questions:

1. I always wanted to start my own business and never have.
2. I'm good at reading people and good at making people feel happy when they sad.
3. I have never ridden a roller coast. I've always been scared to get on one.
4. There never has been a movie that made me cry. A very powerful movie that I like. That's a good question.
5. The nicest compliment I ever received is Ms. Marsha Anderson. :)

Some more questions for you!

1. Can you cook? If so, what is your best dish?
2. What is one thing you would never try?
3. Have you ever been taken out to a nice dinner? Fast food place doesn't count.
4. What's the nicest gift you ever received?
5. What's a hobby or interest you've always wanted to try but never have?
6. What's one (or many) interests or subjects that you are very knowledgeable of? Even if it's kind of obscure and not something taught in school.
7. What's the nicest compliment you've ever received?
8. Have you ever ridden a roller coaster? What was it like?
9. What's a movie that makes you cry, or at least a very powerful movie that you like?

Okay, back to the question. I had to think on a very powerful movie that I liked. Braveheart. If you never seen it and get a chance, check it out.

Before I close, here are a few other songs that you may want to check out. Some is country and some are not.

1. "Somebody Got To Be Country" by Easton Corbin
2. "Mama Tried" by Merle Haggard
3. "Beautiful Stranger In My Heart" by Toby Keith
4. "Kiss This" by Air Tippin
5. "Nothing Breaks Like A Heart" by Miley Cyrus
6. "Can't be Tamed" by Miley Cyrus
7. "Girl" by Maren Morris
8. "Cry Pretty" by Carrie Underwood
9. "T-Shirt" by Thomas Rhett
10. "Picture" by Kid Rock/Sheryl Crow
11. "Problem Child" by AC/DC
12. "Slow Train" by Bob Dylan

The song "Kiss This" by Air Tippin makes me laugh every time. I hear it and I'm sure you will get you a good laugh too.

I hope to hear from you soon. Take care, keep strong ,and keep your head up.

Always a friend,
Jack
