2006 HANDBOOK FOR WRITERS IN PRISON
2006 HANDBOOK FOR WRITERS IN PRISON
PEN American Center is pleased to announce the release of the 2006 Handbook for Writers in Prison.

This updated edition features new information on punctuation, cover letters, and a list of recommended magazines and journals that consider work for publication. There are also detailed guides on the art of writing fiction, nonfiction, poetry, and screenplays. This is an invaluable resource to any incarcerated writer. To date, PEN has distributed 20,000 copies of the Handbook and continues to receive requests.

The Handbook for Writers in Prison can also be ordered on behalf of a friend or loved one who is incarcerated, though we encourage you to make a $5 donation to the Prison Writing Program. Your support will not only help us publish future editions of this Handbook but will also help provide hundreds of inmates across the country with skilled writing teachers and audiences for their work. Price: $0.00
