Another day in Paradise! Another Friday passed with me receiving NO mail! So if you sent a jpay on June 18th, chances are I didn’t get it. On Monday June 21st, I only received jpay’s from Sandra, Tali and Katie. Tali about my book I am working on. They were all dated June 20th which is Sunday! The date on the jpay was that! No one listed their own date, so maybe they were sent on Friday but weren’t processed until Sunday for some reason.

Today I didn’t get any jpays. If you send a jpay, please double check to make sure it was “sent.” If I don’t get it I need the letter ID number so I can file a complaint about it.

Onto other things. I am writing my book. That however does not mean that I am not writing letters. I just spent a couple of days doing nothing but working on my book! So I wanted people to know that it might be a couple of days extra, before you got my response. If anyone has held off on writing because you were under the thought I wanted them to hold off due to me working on my book; PLEASE WRITE!! As when I don’t hear from people, it gets me frustrated. I cant write when I am frustrated! When I hear from people, it helps me to have peace in my life. When they say good things at least J Haha!

My book is coming along well! If it was put into print with what I have so far, it would be over 60 pages long! I am just at 11 years of age! While writing it I often have to stop and pace my floor just to calm down. For a few days I didn’t work on it at all. I am almost done. I decided to just add my poems with my book. They will be at the end of the book.

Onto other things… I want to address two topics. My blogs and money. My blogs are my self presentation to the world. I do not write them to please any one set group of people. I write them to express myself and to show people a glimpse into my world. I express a reality that is my existence. Some blogs you will like, and some you will not. Just as with life. Some people catch the humor that is in my blogs, and some people it goes over them. That is why I often write about perception. I also at times try to bring about the emotions that I experience. Sometimes my blogs upset people in the anti-death penalty movement. Most times it upsets the pro-death penalty movement. There are groups set up to end the death penalty and some to uphold it.

I fight for my life and to get a new trial. I as well in the process educate people about the system. I also, in case the worst happens try to do positive things and fight for certain causes, so I can leave a footprint on this earth so to speak. I don’t adhere to the thought that because I am on death row, I am in the same boat as everyone else here. The gurney holds just one person at a time. There are a few people here that I will work with on certain projects and have my supporter work with their supporter. I either respect them or know that the people they are involved with know what they are doing. Many people will complement me on my efforts to end the death penalty. That’s not the purpose of my blogs or efforts!!! My job is to save CLINTON LEE YOUNG!! Now I will educate about the reality of the system. Which in the process will turn people against the death penalty. Many of which I have over the years. I let those that are better equipped to fight for the end of the death penalty do so. People who ha ve struggled over it for years such as Gloria Rubac, Sandrine Skinner and etc. It’s easy for a death row inmate to stand up and scream “Hey, stop the death penalty!” As we all have selfish reasons to call for it to end. So I leave that to those in the free world. The Justice Rallies I do are to help educate about the full spectrum of the Judicial system. It covers everything.

So my blogs are an education process to show the flaws of the system and to expose the flaws of my case and to help you see the world through my eyes. This way people can get to know me better and also to get help from people in saving my life. This brings me to a topic I don’t like to talk about… Money. I got a letter from a friend today. She handles a portion of my campaign. She pointed out mentioning the amount I needed for my site and it seems some people suspected that. As they say they only paid 40 or 50 dollars for theirs. Okay I can get a site for that, yes. However, what all you see on my site www.saveaninnocentlife.com when I am done, which I wanted to be by now. There will be twice the amount of legal work and videos that are on it now, plus many more book reviews. All my future blogs and also future legal work, plus more items in the store and everything will be translated into several different languages. All of that equals a bunch of space. The site alone costs me $200 per year. The webmaster I had working on it was charging me $75 per hour to make updates and etc. Katie has receipts in the web masters name! My web host is a pro web which is clearly shown on my site! One just has to look up that company to see who the guy is that hosts it. I needed a set amount as I was going to shut down my site and switch it over to a different host and get everything as I needed it, in the fasted most professional manner. I am not about to just let any person do whatever they want with my website. That is the foundation for the efforts to save my life. In the past, I have had people just do whatever they wanted to with my site and false information ended up getting posted and so forth. Though when some events changed with my site, I withdrew my request for funds specifically needed for my site. I did that on my own! As it wasn’t needed for a specific matter! Just because I am an inmate doesn’t mean that I lack a sense of decency or integrity. It is true that many do. However I would point out that wall street stole more money from people than any death row inmate! People in prison get put there for stealing a purse! A bank steals your whole damn house!

The point is there is always a risk in life. Though collectively speaking and all things considered. I feel that the majority of the people that read my blogs and such. I believe that they know I am legit for my efforts. Plus I don’t always ask for a handout. Why you think I had my DVD made and etc? That is always why I had the payperview protion put on my site. It should be up by now, hopefully it is.

If I ever request for something, if you want to donate to help with that request, but would like to know specific details. I have NO problem at all providing them! I actually would prefer to provide them as this way it helps to build confidence. An example, the Justice Rally. It cost a specific amount to rent a park. If I am putting the event on in Houston, all one would have to do is call the Houston City Hall and findout the cost!

My point is, please do not just automatically assume and suggest I am up to no good. The bottom line is, I am just trying to save my life and need help doing it. Hopefully my book is done soon. I don’t want to give a date of completion as when I do it usually gets messed up. I do know that it will be around 400 pages! I as well know that within the first twenty pages people are going to be laughing and crying!

The style I write it in is like “The Catcher in the Rye,” was written or “The Life Before Us.” I don’t have chapter to chapter. It just flows. Like you are sitting beside me and I am just talking away.

Take care and smile each day..

I leave as I came.

Veni, Vidi, Vici
