My Memoir is Here!

My memoir, Soul Knows No Bars: a Writer’s Journey Doing Poetry with Inmates, has been released from Olive Tree Publishing.

This book is about my fourteen year sojourn inside Auburn Correctional Facility, a men’s maximum security prison in Auburn, New York, as a weekly volunteer facilitating a poetry workshop with inmate writers. This work enabled the publication of four works by members of the workshop, one chapbook and one full-length volume, each by an individual author, and two anthologies. Although it is a prose memoir, the book contains some of the inmates’ poems, plus some of mine about my experiences.

The book is 335 pp, paperbound, $14.00 plus $3.50 postage. To order your copy of Soul Knows No Bars, a Writer’s Journey Doing Poetry with Inmates, and any of my other books, plus the volumes by inmate writers, go to my
