James Dollar is, of course, my writing name. I can't let my true name be known for obvious reasons. I have made it known to my readers that I am still in prison. I have an old version of WPS which I use for writing along with a squishy roll-up keyboard. I use the typing skills I taught myself while I was in Supermax for seven years. I had an old typing textbook and I drew a keyboard on a piece of cardboard. I worked and worked to learn how to give my fingers their own memory of where the keys are on a Qwerty keyboard. I have to pay from 50.00 to 75.00 to be able to hotspot off the contraband cell phone of a fellow inmate. It's fair enough because it provides me with my tiny window into freedom through which I hope to one day crawl out of prison and back into life.

Now you can picture me. Sitting here with my old broken half-lens glasses just typing away and enjoying myself immensely. I am going to get better at writing so I can reward anyone who reads my material with better work
