#MAILSPRING NOT PRINTING FULL#

Having for the last two years had an open legal case with a still ongoing appeal, I must retain thousands of pages of documents in support of it. I have an almost unmanageable problem with paper. But it’s semi-annual inspection time behind these stone walls this past week, and that means tearing up this cell, cleaning every square inch - there are 13,824 of them in an 8' x 12' cell - and generally making it look as though no one lives here.Two people can accumulate a lot in six months between inspections, even in a closet-sized prison cell. SPRING INSPECTION Actually, I am not as distracted from writing as my introduction implies. In the body of your letter, however, you may call me whatever you want - within reason! I never encourage use of a title on mail as it calls undue attention to the mail, but now it also causes mail to be rejected. The mail is returned to sender without my even knowing about it.

Do not use a title on the envelope such as “Rev.” or “Fr.” Prison officials have recently refused mail to me for having such titles on the envelope - even though I never even see the envelope.

I am sometimes not aware of a check until I receive a monthly statement. Checks are removed from mail before I receive it, and then deposited into my account.

Please never feel obliged to do this, but if you do, remember to mention the check and amount in your letter.

Please do not use any title on the check.

Remember that checks or money orders must have the full name and address of sender (no initials), and my name and number (67546).

This is always appreciated, and far more help than you may know for postage, supplies, even food, clothing and other expenses.

Some readers have sent me gifts in the form of checks or money orders with their letters.

Each individual mailing is limited to ten physical pages. So be sure to include your address in the body of your letters.

Remember that I receive only the contents of mail and not the envelope.

So please don’t feel deterred from writing! Letters, internet printings, and printed articles are still allowed.

Photographs and printed material, including printed images, are still permitted as long as they are printed on plain or “photo-quality” paper.

“It is important that you keep in mind that the intent of this is NOT to limit a person’s ability to write a letter to an inmate, but to prevent drugs from being hidden within heavy paper stock or mixed with a fluid and dried on the paper - sometimes camouflaged by drawings.” Prison Administrators explain the new policy as follows: The issue seems to be a ban on any paper that is thick or layered such as card stock.

I can still purchase cards to send out, but you can no longer send a greeting card to me - not even at Christmas.

No greeting cards of any type, or for any occasion, are allowed in mail to a prisoner here as of May 1, 2015.

The policy has been clarified a bit so please bear with me as I try to explain the newest prison mail rules: I have been posting updates about it over the last few weeks. There’s lots of drama behind these stone walls to distract a writer from writing.Most readers of These Stone Walls are aware of a new prison mail policy here that took effect on May 1st. Draconian new mail rules, spring inspections, summer food orders, baseball season.
