“Prose of a Con is not about trying to paint a pretty picture of wrongs, but about seeing the opportunities of good in all bads, that speck of light in the dark, it’s about redemption… Not garnering sympathy, but empathy through a “Triple C” approach: Communication, Connection, and Community. I hope to be able to not only speak my story and pain, but use this site as a platform for the families of prisoners and prisoners themselves to share parts of their experience as an outlet.”

– Russell Wardlow
