Many people seem to have an intrinsic curiosity about prison, as evidenced by the volumes of books, films, television series, and documentaries on the subject matter.
As a former prisoner, I sometimes wonder about people curious to consume such content, contrasting older, more conservative people who might view such material with an eye to seeing justice executed upon scourges of their society to conversely, the youth culture that tends toward putting the prison experience on a pedestal-a badge of honour to be worn and brandished weapon-like to gain peer approval, a proving ground for masculinity.
The prison experience is paradoxical.
It can be chilling in danger yet tethered to safety. Its monotony gruelling but excitement blood curdling. You can feel desolate isolation despite being surrounded by hundreds of people daily, but also develop the comradery known only to soldiers fighting at the front or pirates plotting, plundering, and pilfering.
As prison is a paradoxical experience, it is a near impossible task to completely encapsulate and convey for consumption to others who never have and, thankfully, never will experience it.
This book is my attempt to give people glimpses of the paradox.

Hi I'm Andy.
I write mostly novellas & short stories.
The reason is, well it's harder because in shorter fiction there's nowhere to hide. You have to be really interesting very quickly to capture the reader.
I'm not into padding out a story with sub-plots or love triangles purely to bump up the word count, just so I can boast I wrote a novel.
The second reason is, people have so much media vying for their attention these days that honestly, they want satisfaction & they want it quick!
Novellas & anthologies provide this satisfaction.
Anyway, if by some miracle you enjoy my work & want to tip me as encouragement, well that's greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
Andy.
