I've read an interview with Jonathon Asser about his therapeutic Shame/Violence Intervention (SVI) work with prisoners, helping them to manage aggression. I've also seen the film 'Starred Up' which is based on some of his experiences. Fascinating guy.

Normally hand-written stories, letters and poems shouldn't present a censorship problem, although it might depend on the subject matter. <br /><br />The authorities don't like discussion of prison issues if there is any mention specific names (identifiable prisoners or staff), so I think any delay or ban on posting it out could be linked to subject matter. If not, then it might just be standard prison incompetence in getting mail sorted out or a staff shortage in the post room!PrisonUKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05060870139110580938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8623255227619374869.post-19759511532703276702015-02-22T16:25:17.414+00:002015-02-22T16:25:17.414+00:00great article as always. i have a related/non-rela...great article as always. i have a related/non-relation question; a friend of mine has been trying his hand at creative writing and wrote a short story which he sent to me about 2 weeks ago but has since not arrived, does the system filter letters that go out and this could have been potentially stopped or maybe blame it on Royal Mail? Usually when i write to him he receives the letter the next day or day after.<br /><br />thanks! i know it is not related but maybe a little :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
