Book Description: After running into trouble in college, to finding himself in a cold prison cell, Keir fell to life's lowest bottom. He faced a choice in that empty prison cell: he chose to never give up. From that lonely moment on, Keir embraced his harrowing imprisonment and seized this unique opportunity to recover, heal and grow. He began reading, teaching, public speaking, and with his typewriter, he began to write. Keir wrote as a way to work through his emotions, as a way to capture the experience and culture of prison, and in an attempt to fuel the glimmer of hope and inspiration that hides itself well in a world devoid of any light. This is a gripping collection of true stories from prison. These stories explore the human condition in its rawest state, document the grueling journey of one man's recovery as he embarks on an uncharted road toward redemption, and strive to create reflection and inspiration in those who read them.
