I am seeking friends and meaningful relationships, but... I have been deprived for so long that I would welcome and enjoy unnecessary criticism... random personal attacks, as well as mean-spirited hate mail!
I was once in a cult, but since then I started writing articles about the Bible, and I can answer, correctly, any Bible questions. I always dreamed of having fast cars when I was a…
Stopping by to see the man of your future or to make a great friend? Well, look no further. Unfortunately, I have a lil bit of time to spend here. But I’m looking for a good conversation, a person that will be interested in building a friendship and bond.
Maybe something more? I’m 30. I’m a devoted father of 8 beautiful children. I love Jesus. I accept Him as my Lord and Savior. I pray…

I'm here looking to have some fun and to find someone special to build a relationship with. I still have about two years or less to do on a five-year sentence, and it would make all the difference to have someone beautiful and intelligent to converse with.
I got a great personality and a good sense of humor, so getting along with me shouldn't be hard. I'm a diamond in the rough, just…
I'm a heterosexual, African American male from the great state of Mississippi, and can describe myself as a very loyal, motivated, and dedicated person. My dedication derives from making sure myself, as well as my loved ones, are taken care of, and I enjoy learning about anything that can help me accomplish that goal.
Since I've started my journey, I've learned that patience times…
What's going on, Ms. Lady!!! Before I introduce myself, I wanna thank you 2,000 times for being kind and slowing down to read this. I hope that your day was filled with peace, happiness, and love, and it's hoped that you're feeling finer than just fine. But if you're down for some reason, hopefully I can share some of my energy with you and send some of these butterflies to dance, do their…
Hey, I’m 26 years old, 6’0” and 175 pounds. I’ve been incarcerated for the past seven and a half years, and I’ll be home in about two and a half years. I’m a published author with big goals, a clear vision, and a definite plan for making them happen. I’m looking to connect with someone who is just as ambitious, motivated, and goal-oriented.
A little about me: I’m a Pisces, and my…
Let me take a few minutes of your time to hopefully give you a better perception of the 'real' guy behind the light skin and the tattoos. (smirks) I am not really that good at introductions. I am good at holding conversations, especially if the vibe is right and the chemistry is there. Since a young age, I took a liking to art.
So I've developed a skill with pens, paints, and pencils. I…
I'm in search of an open-minded, down-to-earth woman. One who is genuine and above the emotional games. I believe that true friendship should be built on trust, respect, and honesty. Keeping it real with me is more important than looks, weight, or age because a pretty face doesn't build anything and a nice body doesn't solve real problems.
None of that has anything to do with value.…
I'm interested in someone who doesn't mind my circumstances, who doesn't judge me for mistakes that have been made in my life. This situation doesn't define who I am as a person. I'm a genuine guy who loves to make others laugh and enjoy life.
I hope I get the opportunity to share this with you or whoever may be reading this. We all need someone to share life with, whether that's for a…
I like art, I am tatted up and also attending school & church. I am of Christian faith. I am interested in the stock market. I consider myself a family man, though I have no kids. I am 5'9" & 185#. I work out daily.
I would like someone to talk to, to share my days with. Someone to share their days with me. Another voice and story to listen to... I'm here, write me.

What are prison pen-pals? Prison pen-pals are inmates who exchange letters with non-incarcerated pen-pals. Inmates have been turning to our WriteAPrisoner.com program since its inception in 2000 to seek correspondence and, within their profiles, to express interest in mentorship, legal assistance, educational opportunities, employment upon release, housing options, and other reentry-related topics. We post profiles, photos, and contact information of inmates. You, the viewer, can then select which prisoners you would like to correspond with, both men and women, after viewing personal (interests, goals, etc.) and public (crime, release date, etc.) information.
Once you have selected a prison pen-pal to correspond with on our app, you have the option of sending your first message free of charge. Contact with prison pen-pals is then maintained via postal mail or programs like CorrLinks, GettingOut, JPay, and Securus Technologies. Inmates cannot access their WriteAPrisoner.com profiles online in any capacity. We are a pen-pal website only. Inmates pay for pen-pal profiles. That income is used for operating costs as well as our Scholarships, Welcome Home Kits, Reintegration Profiles, and other community programs intended to support successful reentry. Payment for a profile does not guarantee correspondence or responses from members.
Research shared on our Why WriteAPrisoner page and the Federal Bureau of Prisons suggests that maintaining positive outside contacts and pro-social connections may be associated with improved post-release outcomes. Inmates from county jails, state prisons, federal prisons, on death row, and in rehabilitation centers across the country have posted profiles, often describing each letter they receive as a wire of hope. We also have prisoners listed from outside of the United States. Individual outcomes vary. WriteAPrisoner does not guarantee any specific result or outcome from participation.
You can conduct an inmate search of inmates not listed on our website by using our Inmate Locator. We also encourage you to visit our Prison Forum to engage with other members about related topics, such as what to expect when you meet an inmate, death row, correspondence, visitation, different departments of corrections, and more.
