Book excerpt: This book is a collection of the work read aloud by the Wednesday Night Creative Writing Class, or "Brothers in Pen," at San Quentin State Prison on July 13, 2013. Each writer selected a five-minute excerpt to read to an audience gathered for this annual public event. As always, the stories were compelling, intense, funny and challenging and the day reverberated for a long time after it was through. This book is a keepsake of that day and a way of sharing a taste of the work being done in this class.
