PONYXPRESS, BRIDGEWORKS OREGON

  • 2516 NW 29th St Portland, Oregon (map)

Danny Wilson and Tracy Schlapp designed a program that  assembled more writing from people who are incarcerated. An editorial board at Oregon State Penitentiary works with the two mentors to solicit writing, select, and edit it. Schlapp and Wilson produce on-site workshops at prisons around Oregon to encourage submissions, along with a monthly newsletter for interested writers. The collection is published online at  the ponyXpress, a platform that encourages subscriptions — sections are released weekly. Schlapp and Wilson will present writings and workshop techniques with recently released writers.
