April 22,2013

Dear Nelly,
                 As you can see- the enclosed letter was returned to me and what I gathered by the red ink is that someone doesn't know the departments of psychiatry/ neuroscience- Friedman Brain Institute? Oh yeah, I'm angry and wonder if I could "forgive" the idiot who returned this letter! A few deep breaths and I've decided that if it gets to you this time- I'll let things slide. Wiping the sweat from my brow- I realize I saved myself from another indictment for murder!!
                 I was reading the April/ 2013 issue of Wired magazine and I saw this article about people "putting out new books themselves, selling digital downloads and print editions through Amazon". Is this sort of what you meant when you made mention of putting my story on the Internet (during our October /2012 visit)?
                  Let me tell you my feelings about this and then I'd HOPE you'd give it some thought and answer when you get the chance.
                   Nelly, I don't want to believe my head is swollen, but I know I can write! Not nonfiction, the only facts my writing will contain is that it'll come from my imagination and I believe people will be very interested within what I write. I believe YOU would be interested in what I write, but you're like the other handful of people I write! You're ALL career minded people and it would be a task for you to find the time to sit before a computer to type the chapters in (I suppose that's how it is done). Would you be willing to do this, look into it for me, or do you have any idea of  who may do it?? Answer that for me because the person who probably has the most free time (Mr.Thieben) is computer illiterate, does not believe in cell phones, or answering machines and still rides around on a bicycle from 1957!
                       I do not want our correspondence to ever be a burden to you and maybe this is asking too much of you? One thing you could be sure of Nelly is that I have my big boy pants on so if you tell me "you don't have the time", I'll definitely get over it. It certainly won't linger within my thoughts, leaving a nasty taste in my mouth that my former attorney or stepfather leaves! I promise you that, so please think about it and share your thoughts with me.
                        Have you ever read anything by Edward Rutherfurd? A great author and if you get a chance pick up London or New York by him and read. I do believe you'd enjoy (them I did).
                         Everything is going well and though it is  7 1/2 months away, this is when I start preparing for the parole board tidying up the little things, but I feel positive for once because next month is 24 months without a misbehavior report and I do believe this is the LONGEST I've ever gone without a report. I look at it like this, if it isn't 2014, it can't be too much longer after that. I do feel that, so I'll just HOPE for the best and pray that the people I do know are still alive once I'm released! That is the only thing that scares me for I know I can still serve some years if I must, but I'm afraid I have no one once I'm  released. I could live alone, but I don't wish to be alone in all aspects of life.
                           Okay, I'll end this so I could get this in the mail. I hope all is well with you. Until the next time, take good care.
                                                                         James
