My name is Branton Noojin. I’m 43 years old. I’ve been in prison 21 years. I’m serving a 100-year sentence for voluntary manslaughter and murder. I find solace in writing poetry and other works of art. I love to laugh and smile, although some days it’s hard. I’m currently working on getting my material published. And I will keep doing so.
