Only very special people consider correspondence with a death row inmate. God bless you!

Hello everyone,

My name is Brendt Volarvich. I am in my mid 20’s. I am from Northern California, originally from San Jose. I am a single, White man, residing on California’s Death Row at San Quentin State Prison.

I am looking for female correspondence. Not necessarily the romantic kind. All female correspondence is more than welcome. I don’t have many people to write. My family is my only constant.

My main interests are reading and writing. My first love is history, but I also enjoy fictional novels as well. I am a sucker for a love story and love Romantic Comedies when it comes to films. I’ve written 5 fictional stories of different varieties. Hopefully someday one of my stories will get published. It is a long shot since I am a high school drop out with little formal education. All of my knowledge is self taught behind prison walls.

When I was 12 years old my father committed suicide, which devastated our family. My Mom did the best she could to provide a happy family, but I spiraled downward from the moment I got this terrible news. One of the main reasons I didn’t do well in school was because I fell head-long into drugs almost immediately thereafter. My main focus became getting high instead of excelling academically.

I would be thrilled to hear from fellow writers or artists, as well as anyone who has read a good book or has seen a good movie lately. We don’t get much of that in here so I am eager to hear about anything new from the outside world. I would also welcome comments and suggestions regarding publishing my stories if you have any. I am told that I have a wonderful sense of humor love to share.

My life hasn’t turned out the way I had hoped. I’ve made some terrible mistakes. I wish I could go back and change everything, but I can’t. I can only learn from my mistakes, and pray my little brothers learn from them as well.

I have to survive this terrible place without becoming a monster or going insane. To do this, I could use all of the support I could muster. Pen Pals would help exponentially, so if you like what you have read please write to me at the address below.
