description: In writing The Rise &amp; Fall of Jimmy Wonderboy I hoped to examine my life and why certain things happened. By the end of the book, which I wrote over the course of a year. (One to three pages at a time while I was alone in my cell.) I would sit quietly, and on an old Brother typewriter, let my mind wander. I noticed during rewrites that I used humor to stop the pain of what I was thinking—of what I had done to my loved ones. I truly hope that after you read this book you will come to the conclusion that we need to address this crisis of abuse and quickly. Not necessarily by locking up the person but by helping the person on a mental-health level. It would be a wiser way to spend taxpayer money and keep the family unit together.
