About Exchange for Change and Don’t Shake the Spoon

Exchange for Change offers college-level writing courses in South Florida prisons and runs letter exchanges between incarcerated students and writers studying on the outside. We believe in the value of every voice, and we give our students an opportunity to express themselves without the fear of being stigmatized. 

Don’t Shake the Spoon is our literary journal to showcase the creative writing that incarcerated students produce in E4C classes every year. The journal is sold at cost online, in stores, at book fairs, and elsewhere, so that our students' voices can be heard far and wide.

  • Approx. 14,000 words
