Another Story Is Birthed... From Within The Walls of a Prison.

I spent this past Friday within the walls of Mansfield Correctional Institution and Saturday at Grafton Correctional... yes both state prisons that are in Ohio fellowshipping with inmates while working with 'Champions For Life.' It was while I was walking with a C.O. (Corrections Officer) between the prison yard and the dining hall that an idea for a new novella came to me. During that short walk a rough idea blossomed into a full outline with a beginning, middle and an end which was flushed out over the rest of the weekend. Let's just say it involves spiritual and supernatural warfare, a ouija board, show and tell at an elementary school and a prison in a very remote location where within it walls the physical manifestation of evil is the catalyst for some forced alliances who must work together if any one of them that are left are to survive. I really am looking forward to writing this one. - C

  1. Sounds like a great story, Charles. I think that it is very wonderful that you take time out to spend with prison inmates...some of them probably don't have any family or friends on the outside. Kudos!

    I would love to hear more about the story you mention!

    All My Best,
