Welcome to my channel. I'm Wayne T. Dowdy. Thanks for watching my videos! My publisher created StraightfromthePen.com for me while I was serving a 420-month federal sentence for armed bank robbery and associated charges. On August 28, 2018, I left the Prison system en route to Dismas Charities in Atlanta, Georgia, where I began another journey. Until then, I had never used a cellphone or accessed the Internet.
My publisher gave me control of my website and book files. Today, on this YouTube Channel and @WayneTDowdy3, and youtube.com/@WonderfulThingsDone, I strive to inspire and encourage others to never give up or lose hope of living a more fulfilling life, especially other returning citizens.

These large Argentine Tegu lizards are an invasive species that has invaded the South, now found in Gwinnett County, a part of Metro Atlanta, and Tattnall and Toombs counties further South. Wildlife officials suggest termination, if legal to "dispose of" where found.

Reentry into society after spending decades inside the United States Federal Bureau of Prisons poses challenges to anyone who walks out the door. Along my journey I faced many challenges but refused to give up when the world wasn't working According to Wayne. Throughout the years since I originally paid my publisher to create StraightfromthePen.com for me, I posted hundreds of blogs, most while still confined inside the prison system. Since my release I created a series titled Life After Release. Here is the latest, all photos that I use were taken by me with cellphones as I ran around enjoying life as a free man. straightfromthepen.com/2023/01/29/life-after-relea…
Now as I am learning more about how to post YouTube videos, I have created a few Shorts I hope you take time to check out. www.youtube.com/playlist?list...

straightfromthepen.com/2019/05/28/today/ Only those who served long prison sentences may understand how one feels to walk around and use a device (smartphone) to make a video by using technology that did not exist when arrested 1988). Until August 28, 2018, I had never used a cellphone or been on the Internet. Look at me now! :-)
