This morning at 1:40 am I resumed work on chapter six of my manuscript for Earning Freedom. I wrote through page 262. Then I went outside to exercise, running 10 miles and boosting my tally to 2,062 miles over the past 233 days. In the afternoon, I wrote more, advancing chapter six to page 265.
This portion I’m writing now describes the end of 1995, when I was in my eighth year of imprisonment and going through some troubles with prison administrators who blocked access to my studies. It caused a change in my prison adjustment, one that worked out fine in retrospect. At the time, however, the suspension of my academic program really sunk my spirits.
Tomorrow morning I’ll resume work on chapter six, and I expect to finish the first draft by Tuesday.
